Denver’s free shuttle buses along the 16th Street Mall are scheduled to resume on Sunday for the part of the mall between Union Station and Curtis Street, Regional Transportation District officials announced Thursday morning.
People downtown can board them at any of the blocks reopened following months of disruption during mall reconstruction work.
RTD’s free “mall ride” shuttles won’t run along 16th Street between Curtis Street and the easternmost Civic Center Station until the reconstruction project is completed in 2025, agency officials said. For riders headed to Civic Center, free shuttles will continue to run along 15th and 17th streets, officials said.
Since September, RTD has been training bus drivers to familiarize them with the new shuttle route down the mall’s center.
