The Idiots are back at the Legislature
More RTD reform is coming next year, Colorado legislators say

Who is this Matt Frommer clown?
He cherry picks who he compares RTD with and he conflates bus ridership with light rail or system ridership.
For example he looks to Seattle but uses King County bus service and not Sound Transit. But more importantly why doesn't Matt use his talents to find a Bell Cow who would bring 55,000 employees to downtown Denver like Amazon has in Seattle. Not a smart comparison.
I wonder why he doesn't include Portland in his comparison as that would seem to be a very good peer city to Denver. Any guesses?
Matt is sooo disappointed in RTD's light rail ridership in June of this year. Somebody go knock on his door and inform him of all the maintenance issues maybe?
He looks to Capital Metropolitan Transportation Authority ie Austin. Somebody inform him that Austin has a meager transit system like one-third the size of RTD - oh but then he complains about RTD not being robust enough. Meanwhile Austin is being sued by the state attorney general for their created entity for better transit not being legal under the state's constitution.
Utah Transit Authority? Does anybody here care about them? BTW, just guessing they haven't had the same homeless etc problems that Denver has. Perhaps Matt could use his talents to fix that for Denver.
Many areas have multiple transit agencies and Matt picks out the one he likes best. Why am I not surprised.
Love those who cherry pick and conflate; they're so pleasant to reason with.
