How many people does the RTD of Denver carry on Route 205 from Gunbarrel to Boulder?”
RTD route 205 is one of the routes that is proposed to be cut: Phil Simpson recently found a convenient bus route from his Gunbarrel neighborhood to his daughter’s school and his office in central Boulder.

The 205C branch of the route via Spine Road would be eliminated, forcing riders of that route to walk a half-mile to the 63rd Street stop instead.
