I think RTD should just be blunt with voters and say "Hey.... you want to finish that train to Boulder? You want more rail? Welp, vote in a tax increase then to fund it.".....

I think RTD should be focusing on expanding regional bus services that mimick what the FF does. Are there ridership numbers for the Flatiron Flyer? I would be curious to see what those numbers are, and if they have actually increased in recent years. If they have, RTD should be using that as justification for getting away from spending so much money on rail lines that won't get justified ridership. I totally support some existing rail lines (A line, SE lines) as they serve key connecting points. I also continue to believe that the folks who are the most upset about the incomplete B line are actually a vocal minority.

Giving up on the B line, while beefing up regional bus routes would go a long ways towards helping RTD out......
