Route 23 – West 20th Avenue – Route Adjustment, Schedule Timing
Service Change
Route 20 will be split into Route 20 and Route 23, with Route 23 serving the western portion and Route 20 serving the eastern portion of the route.
Route 23 will operate between National Lab of the Rockies and Union Station.
Customers traveling between the western and eastern portions of the former Route 20 will need to transfer between Routes 23 and 20.
Service Change Reason
Breaking the route 20 into eastern and western separate routes was a recommendation of the System Optimization Plan, which will improve reliability and schedule adherance. However, the route 23 continues into downtown, which was not recommended in the SOP, in order to maintain connectivity between Lakewood and Edgewater to downtown Denver.
