Bus Stops

GDT > Campaigns > Bus Stops

Can you spend a few extra minutes to shovel your local bus stop?

Bus stops not cleared of snow can remain unusable to people in wheelchairs / mobility for days after the snow fall. It only takes a few minutes to become a #BusStopSnowAngel and clear your local stop.

There are 9,700+ public bus stops in the Regional Transportation District (RTD) district. Currently RTD only maintains approx. 300 of those stops leaving the rest to the various towns, cities and counties. A few stops are maintained by advertising companies (such as Lamar Outdoor) in return for them being able to place adverts on the shelters.

Please help us track bus stops that have poor amenities or are not ADA compliant by filling in a Bus Stop Report. Your input helps us make things better for transit riders!

Because bus stops are a key part of the transit experience, GDT has identified 8 amenities which a good bus stop should have:

  1. Sign

2. ADA Compliant Paving (minimum 6ft x 8ft unobstructed paved area).

3. Bench

4. Trash Can

5. Shelter

6. Lighting

7. Map / Schedule

8. Passenger Information Display

Bus Stop 17418: A sign, bench but non-compliant ADA paving.
Bus Stop 12888: Just a sign.
