Boulder County Community Planning and Permitting has launched a new countywide planning initiative named Linking Boulder County: A Shared Vision for Transit. You’re invited to learn about the project and help shape the future of public transit in Boulder County.
Linking Boulder County is a vision and action plan to make public transit easier and more useful for people who live, work, and visit Boulder County. Transit includes buses operated by RTD, shuttles to parks and mountains, and shared vehicles like Ride Free Lafayette and paratransit.
This plan marks the first time Boulder County has set a countywide vision for transit, and it’s an important opportunity to better serve our community. Ultimately, Linking Boulder County will help public transit meet the needs of our growing county today and into the future.
There are many ways you can get involved in the process and help county staff shape the plan and the future of transit in Boulder County. This fall, you are invited to take an online survey about your transit needs, attend a virtual open house, or visit pop-up events around the county:
- Complete the online survey by Thursday, Nov. 20. The survey takes about 5 minutes, and people who complete it can enter a drawing for a $25 gift card.
- Attend a virtual open house on Thursday, Nov. 6 from 5:30-7:00 p.m. Register to attend to hear what county staff have learned and share feedback on transit needs and a vision for the future of transit in Boulder County.
- Find staff at a pop-up event around the county (see the project website for dates and locations).
