Community members routinely suggest improvements to expand or refine transit service in Longmont, such as extended hours to certain destinations (e.g., evening service to Front Range Community College), new routes to serve high-demand areas, and commuter rail. While Longmont is not the transit service provider, this strategy focuses on coordination with the Regional Transportation District (RTD) to better understand needs and prioritize service improvements.
