It sounds like a great service for those outside or on the fringes of the RTD mass transit service…read morearea: "The RTD call-n-Ride is a curb-to-curb transportation service that takes you anywhere you want to go within a designated service area." *Beautiful* -- JUST what I needed, a rescue in my time of need. My car chose last weekend to fail spectacularly on me when the engine started running roughly, the oil warning light didn't go off, the oil level ended up being below 'L', the connecting rod driving a piston (likely) broke, and then the crankcase blew out an impressive grapefruit-sized hole. SO...I was in need of convenient transport. The service advertises $2 per 1-way - very reasonable. If only truth was as good as advertising. The brochure asks you to reserve your trip at least 1 hr in advance, more than reasonable. I called 3 hours early and made a reservation on their Sprint voicemail line. I even gave them a number to reach me at if this wasn't feasible. No one called me, I presumed things were ok. No transport there at the designated time...and no one shows up to 20 minutes after my request. Good thing I had a friend going through the area who could pick me up. call-n-Ride: ***FAIL***. Unimpressed - and that's being kind. Possibly a more direct and honest salute with the proper digit and some choice profanity would be more in order here. You suck.

This service is extremely helpful and the drivers are friendly and as helpful as possible. Their…read more"round-trip" time depends on the service area, in the case of the Interlocken area it is 30 minutes. They do not schedule specific pickup times, however they leave the Park-n-Ride lots at specific times. Although leaving a message suffices when are familiar with the service, you should definitely call back until you speak to the driver your first time (yes, the telephone numbers go directly to the driver). Currently, 2/27/2014, the best times to call are on the hour and on the half-hour, as those are the times the driver is most likely sitting at the Park-n-Ride.

He's energetic and peppy in the morning, which makes for a very enjoyable ride to school. The Golden Call-N-Ride is an extention of RTD public transit services. They have a scheduled route, a flex route (runs at certain time intervals), and a call-in service. You must call and reserve a pick-up at least 2 hours in advance. While I have not used the call-in service, I have called to ask them to stop on a flex route stop outside of their flex route hours. The "Golden green bus" is incredibly convenient as it stops at the Colorado School of Mines and the JeffCo Light Rail Station. As a CSM student, I get a discounted bus pass every year which makes for easy commuting. I am very excited that RTD expanded their service out to Golden. I'd like to see light rail service to the airport next (crossing my fingers that it was connect with the W-line with only one transfer!).

I used the service in the past and never had a problem; however, RTD has recently contracted with a…read morenew provider called Via: https://viacolorado.org/. In recent weeks, there have been a number of problems, including a 55 minute wait to be picked up one afternoon, a bus that never showed on another afternoon, drivers who have not been trained (to the extent that they don't know the routes or, at times, even how to use their onboard computer/GPS system), and a missed connection at light rail on one morning. As I say, all of these incidents have taken place within recent weeks, and I never had trouble with the previous contractor. I do not fault the drivers. With one exception, the new drivers have all been pleasant, and I don't mind providing directions as needed. I am absolutely dependent on the service and I really need it to work as it used to work. A complaint has also been submitted to RTD directly: 300-299-6000.

So I have the firsthand experience regarding public transit. Today is my first ride. I rated it as four stars, based on the following highlights (no particular order): + Ample outdoor parking that's CHEAP + Parking pay station collocated with ride ticket vending machine + Rides are cheap...no comparison needed + Train cleanliness appears to be of importance + Timely departure and arrival + Airport service via transfer at Union station - NO restrooms at this particular station, or I missed them Overall great way to travel locally and especially to a Broncos game, like I am tonight.

Save time, save money and ride the train from the airport to Golden CO! It's easy, it's cheap and if you are 65 there is even a discount. Park at the Jeffco line because it's free and a safe place to leave your ride and not have a hassle fighting for a space downtown. The government building is right next door to the West line so no worries about your car. The train is clean and you don't have to stress the traffic.

Free parking two miles from my house and a $4 ride to a Rockies game? Yup!!…read more PLENTY of free parking here in the covered garage. There are two ticket machines; one takes cash and card and the other is card only. So many reasons to ride the light rail! Avoid busy traffic, avoid parking hassles and fees, see some cool sights, have a few drinks downtown without worrying about a DD, and support public transportation!! People watching is never disappointing either. Usually takes us about 40-45 minutes to get to Union Station. My only complaint about all of these stations is they need more ticket machines. This one isn't as much of a problem as Union Station or Pepsi Center where we have waited 45 minutes after an event to get our tickets. But we have missed a train a time or two here because we are waiting in line. Yay for public transportation!!

This means you are looking at $10 per person for a round trip. This might make economic sense for 1 person, but if you are a group of 4 or 5 people going out for the evening, you could drive downtown, pay for gas and $10 for parking, and still come out $20 to $30 ahead. Also, you would get downtown faster, not spend as much time cooling your heels at the station (or have to change trains on the weekend), and probably wind up much closer to your intended destination. It is neither convenient nor cost effective for many people.

I have no idea how much the parking costs because I found a free street parking space both times I was here. There are automated ticket vending machines on the platform and you will absolutely want to buy a ticket. All four times I rode the train, there was a conductor checking for fares. The train is clean and comfortable enough. It's only a 12 minute run from Westminster to Union station so I suppose it wouldn't be too bad if it was crowded during the rush hour runs. Three stars because the train only runs every hour. That's a big gap between trains!

Free street parking but you'll likely be using the garage. Supposedly the price goes up for parking and of October (2016) but to what fee is unclear at this time. Used the train for the first time going downtown for Great American Beer Festival so that was convenient. Not drinking and driving etc. only pain is the last train to Westminster/Arvada is around 10:20. For people wanting to stay out later it's nice to drive. Still the train took about eleven minutes into Union Station and around fourteen to get back to Westminster. Would ride again.
