Regional Transportation District (RTD) | system map
RTD buses that stop by the campus include: AB (DIA), BX (Express), BV (Local), DD, DM (Anschutz), GS (Cold Springs), J (Longmont), 203, 204, 205.
RTD serves Boulder and the entire Denver metropolitan area -- including Denver International Airport. Student fees pay for a bus pass each semester, so by showing a valid UCB student ID when boarding any Boulder local RTD bus the ride is free. A ride in the metropolitan area that originates or ends in Boulder also is free with a valid UCB student ID. SkyRide to DIA has a $5 surcharge, return from DIA is free. RTD's SkyRide offers reliable transportation to and from Denver International Airport.
After 8:00 p.m. the RTD provides a program called Night Stop. This program allows riders who don't feel safe walking home from their usual stop, to ask the bus driver to let them off at any safe point along the regular route.
The busses listed below service the University directly. In addition to these, other busses service Boulder -- see the RTD link below.
