RTD is adding a new BOLT orange route to East Campus</h4> <p>Starting in January 2023, a secondary orange route will be added to the existing "blue" route during peak commute periods. The routes will diverge both in ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ and in Longmont. In ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ, the new orange route will provide direct access to/from CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ's East Campus. We are helping RTD gather feedback to help inform the schedule for the BOLT service and to provide a deeper understanding of CU commuters' travel patterns along highway 119 between ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ and Longmont. &nbsp;Please take the <a href="https://cuboulder.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9shjJZSPvXEolxQ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ RTD survey</a> if you live in or commute in that corridor.</p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div>Do you live in Longmont or commute via the "Diagonal", aka Highway 119? &nbsp;If so, there are two things we need your input on.</div> <div>Traditional</div> <div>0</div> <div>On</div> <div>White</div> Wed, 01 Jun 2022 20:26:56 +0000 Anonymous 1872 at /staffcouncil
