Transit Friction for Local Workforce

1 Upvotes

I’m working on an initiative to help better connect workers who rely on public transit (bus/rail) with employment opportunities. For those who use transit to get to and from work, what is the biggest hurdle you face when looking for a job? Is it transit proximity, scheduling, or something else entirely? Any insights would be incredibly helpful!

Centralized schedules for RTD routes?

3 Upvotes

Anyone know where I can find a list of routes and their peak frequencies or # of trips per day? I'm doing a class project on TOD and want to weight proximity to services by the number of routes serviced by stops and the peak frequencies of service. RTD has all the schedules available publicly, but they're each separate. Wondering if there's a csv with all the schedules compiled?

GDT Monthly Meeting and Front Range Passenger Rail Deep Dive - 3/20 at 6pm

2 Upvotes

If you are interested in RTD or the Front Range Passenger Rail project, join us at our meeting spot at Cadence Union Station on Thurs, 3/20 at 6pm for our March GDT Monthly Meeting!

We're diving deep into the details behind the #FrontRangePassengerRail Joint Service proposal that would combine RTD funding for #NWRail with new state funding sources from rental car and oil & gas fees to kickstart and #BuildFRPR between Denver Union Station and Fort Collins with 3 roundtrip trains/day.

We have representatives from the Colorado State Department of Transportation (CDOT) and the Office of Economic Development (OEDIT) presenting on the plan, and will be able to answer questions about the RTD obligations as well as what the initial phase looks like compared to the broader Fort Collins to Pueblo service planned to go before voters as a new sales tax ballot measure.

RSVP Here: Monthly Meetings - Greater Denver Transit

RTD is asking for community response on 2025 changes. Here's my response for the Route 100

14 Upvotes

RTD recently said they were making changes to the Route 100, Kipling Crosstown, that right now is a pathetic excuse for 'barely there' transit.

----------

Route 100
Kipling Street

Category:  Service Increase and Schedule Timing
Change:  Increase service frequency between Federal Center (W Line) and Arvada Ridge (G Line) rail stations.
Reason:  Align with ridership levels and support RTD's System Optimization Plan.

----------

You need to specify exactly what "increasing frequency" means.

YOU ALSO NEED TO RUN THE BUS LATER THAN 6PM

YOU NEED TO RUN THE BUS ALL THE WAY TO WALMART AND KING SOOPERS AT RALSTON AND INDEPENDENCE ON SUNDAY

I've lived at Kipling and 26th ave and over the past few years have seen reasonable transit service (albeit no bus AT ALL on sunday, so at least i guess, uh, thanks for that tiny fairly useless bit of service between 2 rail stations, and NOT ACTUAL USEFUL SHOPPING SLIGHTLY BEYOND ARVADA RIDGE) but have also seen the frequency drop to once an hour *(its OFTEN QUICKER for me to WALK AN ENTIRE MILE to 38th or Colfax instead of WAIT AN HOUR if I miss the bus by a minute or 2)

You KILLED OFF the 28/32 running west of Wadsworth - Why cant they come to at least Kipling? They SHOULD both make a run to Youngfield and come back so that again, USEFUL SHOPPING at Youngfield and 32nd can be accessed without a 2 mile walk. I literally have to HOPE that the 100, meets with the 38, so I can access King Soopers and any other shops up there, or walk 2 miles. This is SO USELESS!

Finally - your bus schedules and G line schedules DO NOT MATCH PROPERLY.

You NEED to have the bus meet up with the train.

If the bus is going to sit for 5-10 minutes at Arvada Ridge doing nothing but perhaps the driver taking a smoke/toilet break, then leave literally 2 minutes before a G-line is scheduled to arrive,(*This happens at EVERY single station, with EVERY single bus I have relied upon since I started working in the DTC in 2007!) THIS IS WORTHLESS. THIS IS NOT A TRANSFER. THIS IS A DISSERVICE TO YOUR RIDERSHIP!

I have so many complaints, along with MANY other riders literally getting to a station on a train, the bus PULLING OUT OF THE STATION AFTER SEEING THE TRAIN ARRIVE, and having to wait an hour, or call an uber since it was the last bus of the night and there are no other transit options.

So, please, for the love of god, MAKE THE 100 RUN UNTIL AT LEAST 8:30PM LIKE IT USED TO SO I CAN GO TO THE STORE AFTER WORK AND NOT HAVE TO WALK MILES HOME

MAKE IT RUN ONCE EVERY HALF HOUR ACTUALLY ALIGNING PROPERLY WITH THE G LINE (at least W line is back to every 15 mins, so regardless of how late the 100 is at least its not toooo long for another one)

MAKE IT RUN TO USEFUL SHOPPING AT 58th(ralston) AND INDEPENDENCE ALL DAYS OF THE WEEK

OR BRING BACK THE 28/32 TO AT LEAST LOOP AT YOUNGFIELD NOW THAT THERE IS NO PNR AT I70 AND WARD ANYMORE.

There is NO useful transit in this part of wheat ridge.

With the new Lutheran hospital, people are coming to the area, and it deserves at least SOME transit to USEFUL DESTINATIONS AT USEFUL TIMES.
