network
of bus, rail and special services in response to a significant decrease in
ridership resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

RTD service will change to Saturday bus service levels and Sunday light
rail service levels. Our partners at Denver Transit Operators will also
adjust service on two of the three commuter rail lines they operate:
Frequency on the B Line, which serves Denver and
Westminster, will change to every hour, from every 30 minutes. Trains
on the G Line, serving Denver, Adams County, Arvada and Wheat
Ridge, will run every 30 minutes, as opposed to every 15 minutes.

Current service levels will continue on RTD’s University of Colorado A
Line, which connects downtown Denver and Denver International
Airport. This remains a vital link for airport employees and those who must
fly in and out of DIA.

A complete list of service changes is on the COVID-19 service plan webpage

.

service changes represent  about a 40% reduction from current levels. RTD
will continue to evaluate ridership and service needs and reinstate service
across its system as demand warrants and ridership returns. As service is
restored, changes will move from Saturday and Sunday service
to the service levels outlined in the May service change.

*Social Distancing is Up to All of Us*

Social distancing will be more important as service levels are reduced.
RTD has taken several steps to ensure social distancing across the system,
including limiting the number of riders to approximately 15 passengers per
bus, 20 on larger buses and 30 on rail cars. If necessary, buses will
bypass stops if social distancing limits are reached. Buses will be added
to the most popular routes and staged in those areas as available. Also,
the area behind the bus operator and wheelchair securement area has been
roped off to provide space between the operators and riders. In addition,
the public is being asked to use good judgment in deciding whether to board
any vehicle. If a bus or train looks too crowded, move to the next train
car or wait for the next bus. On the more popular routes, another bus isn’t
far behind. Social distancing is everyone’s responsibility in keeping
ourselves and each other safe.



* “Sound the Horn” Campaign*
[image: SoundtheHorn 4.16.2020]

To demonstrate gratitude for transit workers across the United
States during the COVID-19 pandemic, we participated in a national “Sound
the Horn” campaign at 1 p.m. yesterday, with light rail and commuter rail
trains *emitting two one-second horn blasts. *We did not have our bus
operators honk their horns due to the issues it could cause in street
traffic and on highways. But a special “thank you” to operators from
dispatch through an “all call” message was transmitted at the time of the
horn blowing. A special letter of thanks also went out to our maintenance
staff for their hard work and commitment during these tenuous times.
