CDOT, in collaboration with the Regional Transportation District (RTD), the City and County of Denver, and the City of Glendale, is working on a corridor plan on Colorado Boulevard from East 52nd Avenue to East Hampden Avenue. The plan will analyze multimodal infrastructure needs and identify necessary improvements that will benefit all travelers and support a future Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) route. Public input is key to the planning process.
