District 5’s Inaugural Transit Touch-up Day on May 19 from 8:30 A.M. to 11:00 A.M.!
I’m sure you’ve all driven around the community and noticed RTD bus stop benches looking a bit unsightly. We want to fix that! Our office has compiled a list of every RTD bus stop bench in District 5 and rated them a 1, 2, or 3. 1’s are in most dire need of a fresh coat of paint, 2’s will need a fresh coat of paint soon, and 3’s can wait for a fresh coat of paint later. On May 19th, 23 bus stop benches are slated to be cleaned and re-painted. Over the next few years, the rest of the benches will be painted. We need your help promoting the event! If you’re able, please share with your networks and on social media and in your newsletters.
WHEN: May 19, 2024 from 8:30 A.M. to 11:00 A.M.
WHERE: Meet at the Montclair Recreation Center to pick up supplies and enjoy breakfast, coffee, or juice!
