[Colorado-talk] Bus service between Denver, Colorado Springs rolls forward

Tue Dec 30 18:07:04 UTC 2014

There has been no information put out in southern Colorado about this 
proposed startup. i believe that even when it starts that it will not 
be used until at least a few people are aware of the CDOT program. I 
will be checking with Springs Transit, our bus system in Colorado 
Springs, to even see if they are aware of this let alone why no advance 
notice is being provided to inform commuters of this possible service 
increase. Thanks, Gary for this info.

  when it comes down to it, that's what life is all about: showing up 
for the
people you love, again and again, until you can't show up anymore.

Zach,

No, Greeley is not one of the stops.  The Colorado Department of
Transportation (CDOT) will sponsor bus service between Denver and 
Colorado
Springs, Denver and Fort Collins, and Denver and Glenwood Springs.  The
latest information I have is service will begin on 1 March 2015.  CDOT 
would
like to add service to Greeley and Pueblo in the future; however, they 
need
to ascertain how service will work on the three routes mentioned.  All 
buses
going to Denver will terminate at Union Station.  I do not have any
information at this time on other stops along the way.  Service is only
during rush hour at this time.  Again, CDOT hopes to expand service 
based
upon how the public accepts the service.

I do know the bus going to Fort Collins will stop at the Bus Transit 
Center
near Harmony Road and I-25.  It is my comprehension this across I-25 
from
the Costco and Walmart in Timneth.  One thing CDOT made very clear to 
me is
stops are subject to change.  I found an article from KUNC
<http://www.kunc.org/post/cdot-open-house-talks-express-bus-service-i-25-
man
aged-lanes> bus service which also includes information on managed lanes
from 120th Avenue to CO Highway 7.  It is my plan to send information to
Colorado Talk once I have definitive information from CDOT.

I do not know if it is possible for those residing in Greeley to get to 
Fort
Collins via public transit.  I hope so.
