GM and CEO Debra A. Johnson Marks First Year at RTD This Week
This last Tuesday, Nov. 9, marked one year since the General Manager/CEO
assumed her role at RTD, becoming the first woman to lead the agency in its
52-year history. Amid the uncertainty of the last year, Johnson said, RTD
worked through health and ridership impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic,
difficulties recruiting new employees in a tight labor market and heightened
scrutiny by political entities. The agency also charted its path forward by
adopting a new strategic plan that will provide a blueprint for organizational
excellence in the coming years.

New on News Stop: Transit from a Customer Perspective
The News Stop has begun featuring a crucial viewpoint: that of RTD customers.
Guest bloggers will be featured periodically to share their perspectives about
the agency. The first post is from 13-year-old transit advocate Jackson
Ledesma, who writes that public transportation is “ a way to experience our
city from a different perspective. No longer trapped in an automobile in heavy
traffic, but in a large bus or train filled with people from all walks of life;
each person with their own unique experiences.”

agency, benefiting their colleagues and the communities they serve. Wondering
