Public transportation could be coming to Red Rocks

The City of Denver and Jefferson County officials are looking to add the RTD 'W' line through the area of Morrison and Golden.or go to the amphitheater for a hike or views, but getting to and from the venue can be chaotic, especially since public transportation isn't an option.

Denver City council member for District 9, Darrell Watson, and Jefferson County officials want to change that by including public transportation to the area. The goal is to add the RTD W line through Morrison and have a stop in between to Golden, in case there are people who want to hike or enjoy the area, without having to drive and get stuck in traffic. “We haven’t identified the outcomes yet, but we think some level of public private collaboration for a connector. Some type of bus, or transit that takes us from the W line directly to Red Rocks with stops in between where folks want to be at," said Watson.

Right now, the W line leaves from downtown Denver, heads to Jefferson county, and the last stop ends at the Government Center in Golden.
