LITTLETON, Colo. — The Regional Transportation District (RTD) said it will
permanently discontinue the C and F light rail lines beginning Sunday, Jan. 8.

The ending of the rail lines is listed as part of RTD's January service
changes, which also include updates to regional and FlexRide bus routes.
Other changes on Jan. 8 include expansion of weekday service hours for Route
30, Route 12 will split into two routes (Route 7 and Route 12), and Route 76
will reroute between I-70 and Olde Town Arvada Station.
"These changes are being made in addition to schedule adjustments for a number
of lines and routes to increase on-time performance and operational
reliability," RTD said in a press release.
"RTD adjusts its schedule three times a year to address ridership changes and
activities such as traffic patterns, economic factors, and customer feedback
that affect its system. Some of the changes support increases in ridership,
improvement of on-time performance and increase in service reliability."
The C rail line opened in 2002, traveling between Union Station in Denver to
the Littleton-Mineral station.
The F rail line traveled between 18th and California in downtown Denver to
RidgeGate Parkway in Lone Tree.
Both the C and F rail lines were stopped during the coronavirus pandemic.
RTD said the decision to end service on the rail lines is part of its System
Optimization Plan (SOP).
The plan says RTD consolidated C/D service and E/F service "to improve service
reliability north of the I-25/Broadway Station and to better match service
levels with demand."
