SUMMARY:

RTD is a critical transportation partner for both Littleton and the region.  Over the past two years, through COVID, RTD has struggled with ridership, revenues and operational challenges.  The associated COVID impacts have had a direct impact on Littleton as some RTD routes were cut back or eliminated and light rail service was significantly curtailed.  The presentation will give an update to City Council on the current state of RTD and the path forward.
