Colfax Avenue is many things: it’s the longest commercial corridor in America, an iconic street that embodies Denver's history, and one of the primary transit routes for the region. On this tour, we’ll ride the bustling 15 bus from Downtown through Capitol Hill and out to City Park. From there, we’ll travel through Denver's transit history and learn about community engagement and development along Colfax Avenue. We’ll examine plans for bus rapid transit designed to connect Denver's east side neighborhoods, and check out the many transit priority measures that have already been implemented to make transit faster, more reliable, and more comfortable.
