Current Issues

This route suffers from poor scheduling at 40th & Colorado Station, here buses are timed to depart exactly as westbound A Line trains arrive. This creates a potentially dangerous situation where passengers attempting to catch buses will be crossing the commuter rail tracks in a hurry and may ignore warning devices.

Future Plans

The System Optimization Plan proposes to increase weekday frequency to 15 minutes, evening frequency to 30 minutes and weekend frequency to 30 minutes.

The System Optimization Plan details no proposals to change this route.
