Buses and Light Rail
Bus service beautiful electronic devices Resource Bus service in Denver is provided by RTD (Regional Transportation District), and you can take a bus just about anywhere. A ticket to ride RTD costs $1.50. RTD has a neat trip planner which you can access at http://www.rtd-denver.com. All you need ot do is put in your “From” and your “To,” and RTD will develop an Itinerary for you.
For example, if you wanted to catch a bus in the area of the Brown Palace Hotel arpimd 1100 AM to go to the Denver Zoo, the Trip Planner would tell you to:Go to Bus Stop At: Welton St & 17th St, DENVER Get On Bus: #32 / 32 UNIV HOSPTAL 32 via DOWNTOWN at 10:19AM (Next Bus At 10:49AM)Get Off the Bus At: Denver Zoo, DENVER at 10:33AM Try our Light Rail We have two lines of light rail up and running and another is scheduled to begin service in November. One of the existing lines runs between Five Points (near downtown Denver) to Highlands Ranch, which is southwest of the downtown area. The other line runs from Highlands Ranch to Coors Field. If you are staying downtown, you can pick up Light Rail at the 16th St. Station and ride it to the Pepsi Center and Six Flags Elitch Gardens. Both are just a short trip. One trip I recommend is that you take the Light Rail (it's also run by RTD) to Littleton.
You can pick up Light Rail at several places, including 18th and California, 16th and California and at the Convention Center. A one-way fare is #1.50.When you get off at the Littleton-Downtown station you can walk around the downtown Littleton area, where you will find fun, funky shops and several restaurants, including the Melting Pot (fondue only), Abe's Cafe (for a quick lunch), The Half Moon Bay Restaurant or the Iris Cafe.
