RTD’s System Optimization Plan will act as a route-by-route guide of RTD services through 2027. As the public transit servicer for Broomfield, it is critical that Broomfield’s current and future needs are represented in this draft plan. This Plan impacts thousands of Broomfield residents and workers that may rely on public transportation and does not provide current or future solutions for transit in rapidly developing areas. Your feedback on the draft plan can help make a difference in Broomfield’s transit future.
