BoulderCounty issues report on mountain transit study
Mar 15th
Boulder County, Colo. – The Boulder County Transportation Department has issued the final report of its Mountain Town Transit Feasibility Study to gauge potential for transit service to mountain communities.
The report, which can be found on the Boulder County website, was developed in partnership by county staff and a stakeholder group of residents, municipal representatives and partners such as RTD and Special Transit.
The study assesses the demand for and viability of new and expanded transit service to Boulder County’s mountain communities and connections to Boulder, Longmont, and destinations in Gilpin and Larimer counties.
Recommendations published in the report include:
• Strengthening transit service from mountain communities to Boulder and Nederland, the two primary destinations for mountain town residents
• Maintaining and/or enhancing service on the Climb route from Gold Hill to Boulder
• Examining creation of a transit service from Jamestown to Boulder
• Enhancements to the RTD Route Y service from Lyons to Boulder
The study will serve as an advisory document to Boulder County, aiding decision making regarding future transit investments and grant proposals. The study will also be incorporated into the creation of the county’s Transportation Master Plan.
For more information or to request a printed copy of the report, please contact Jared Hall at jhall@bouldercounty.org or 303-441-4958.
