I would like to note that RTD projected Riderships have historically been very low. After the Southwest Light Rail line opened, it took less than 5-years for it to achieve RTD's projected 2020 ridership levels. It's 2020 projected ridership was 15,000 daily riders and I believe it is well over 17,000 daily riders currently.

The Southeast Light Rail Line has been open for about a year. It was projected to have 33,000 daily riders by 2025, but is already averaging somewhere between 28,000-32,000 daily riders in it's first year of service, the last time I checked. That would put updated 2025 ridership numbers (after the FasTracks improvements and extension) to somewhere between 38,000-42,000 daily riders.

The total post FasTracks rail system should expect a system-wide rai1 daily ridership in 2020 of somewhere between 140,000-180,000 passengers. A 2030 system-wide daily ridership projection would likely be between 180,000-220,000 passengers. This does not include BRT passengers.
