[Colorado-Talk] RTD Will Cut Service

[Brent Batron]

Thank you  Gary. Tjat is what I thought that I had heard.  I cannot believe they are waiting that long to make significant cuts to the service.  It seems that they are slow in acting.  Which is a stark contrast to what most other agencies have done.  Most acted fast and they are waiting a month or so to truly act.  At least that is how it seems to me.

RTD held its Board Meeting last night via conference call.  The Board made the decision approved the service cuts that would have taken place in May.  The Board also voted in a special meeting to cut service due to COVID-19 beginning on 19 April 2020.  The COVID-19 cuts will reduce bus service to the Saturday schedule and rail service to the Sunday schedule.  The COVID-19 cuts are based upon the May Service changes.  RTD describes these cuts on their website<https://www.rtd-denver.com/coronavirus>.  The cuts are over 40 percent.
