[Cabs] RTD public hearings and related issues

[Andrew Harmon]

Dear all
Attached is a flier that Stacy Johnson and Brent Batron from the
Colorado Center for the Blind created and altered for public release;
I realize it's late timing, but I've been busy trying to help
circulate the paper copies around town.

If you can, please send an email to the address mentioned in the
attachment (which I will put below):

<service.changes at rtd-denver.com>

Please also considering attending one of the meetings (if possible)
and if you get an automated message with a fax, please also print your
email and fax it to the number provided.

No matter where you are living or attending school, you *WILL* be
affected by the service cuts, whether only slightly or devastatingly
so; the routes are being cut back if not eliminated outright, and if
you rely on Access-a-Ride at all, they're strictly enforcing the 3/4
mile limits now, which combined with the reductions/eliminations of
fixed bus routes, adds up to even less options for accessible
traveling.

Good luck to all and hope this finds you well

Andrew
