Alternatives
After working closely with the neighborhoods and agencies involved in the East Corridor EIS, the study team has identified the Preferred Alternative as electric commuter rail, running from Denver Union Station (DUS) to Denver International Airport (DIA). However, recent developments regarding RTD’s negotiations with Union Pacific Railroad (UP) have required that the study team consider a refinement of the Preferred Alternative. Please see the Message to East Corridor Stakeholders (July 7, 2008) to learn more. The study team will share these potential refinements through its usual process, which includes public meetings. Please view our Meeting Notices page for information on upcoming public meetings. Prior to the UP development, the following East Corridor recommendations were made by the study team:
Alignment
Stations
There is the potential for others to develop stations at 64th/Peña and 72nd/Himalaya.
Technology
