Route 7, ‘North Washington’, runs from to 38th & Blake Station to Northglenn / 112th Station via Washington Avenue.
The route was created in May 2023 to take over the northern portion of Route 12, which was split under the System Optimization Plan.
Map & Schedule
Route 7 operates 7 days a week. Frequency is generally 30 minutes throughout weekdays and 60 minutes at weekends.
Vehicles Used
The route is operated by TransDev on behalf of RTD using Gillig 40ft Low Floor Transit Buses from the Broadway Garage.
Ridership
Note: Route created in 2023.
Current Issues
This route suffers from poor scheduling at 38th & Blake Station, here buses are timed to depart 4 minutes before Eastbound A Line trains arrive.
Future Plans
The System Optimization Plan further proposes to split the route at the north end with half the buses continuing to serve Northglenn / 112th Station (route 7A) and the other half serving the Denver Premium Outlets (Route 7B).
