RTD considering eliminating one of two bus routes serving Louisville
Citing low utilization, RTD is considering eliminating Route 228, one of the two RTD bus routes serving Louisville. Route 228 connects Lafayette to Superior and Broomfield and includes stops along Highway 42, South Boulder Road, Via Appia, and McCaslin Boulevard in Louisville. To view the schedule and route map for Route 228, visit RTD's website.
Route 228 is Louisville's only public transportation serving the McCaslin corridor, where the City expects additional growth with the soon-to-open King Soopers Marketplace, planned CU development at the former Cinebarre site, and other anticipated development in Centennial Valley.
RTD is expected to vote on the proposed service changes in July, with any approved changes effective in September. The DASH bus route, which connects Boulder to Lafayette via Louisville, would not be impacted by proposed service cuts.
