市区铁路改造项目
30多年后, RTD is investing in its oldest rail infrastructure to ensure the long-term integrity of the network. Light rail service began in Denver on October 7, 1994, with 5.3 miles of track connecting 30th and Downing to Interstate 25. 今天市中心的大部分轨道基础设施, 通常被称为市中心环线, has been in place since the line was first constructed. This section of track has expanded over the years to now serve 10 rail stations on the D, H线和L线, with street-level trains operating adjacent to pedestrians and vehicular traffic.
RTD is doing a full-depth reconstruction of this section of rail to improve safety and mobility, address deteriorating transit infrastructure and extend the design life of the agency’s key transportation assets.
市区铁路改造项目概述
近期工作将分四个阶段进行, 第一阶段将于2024年5月开始, focusing on five segments of track at street intersections in the Downtown Loop. Phases two through four of the approximately $152 million-dollar, full-depth reconstruction project will occur in 2025.
This major reconstruction project is the first of its kind in RTD’s history. 2012年到2023年, RTD undertook 17 isolated projects in the central corridor to replace sections of curved rail, 开关, 口岸, 信号和其他铁路基础设施. The near-term project will leverage previous work done by RTD with time-specific closures to minimize the inconvenience to customers.
第一阶段概述
Five at-grade rail and street intersections will be reconstructed in the project’s first phase, 位于第15街和斯托特街交叉口, 17号黑啤, 15号和加州, 17街和加州街，百老汇街和威尔顿街. The five impacted intersections will not be reconstructed simultaneously. 而不是, RTD will conduct the work in a manner that accounts for impacts to street traffic and has been closely working with the City and County of Denver to discuss potential street closures and develop traffic detour plans. 项目期间, vehicular traffic in the area may be merged to one lane or rerouted around the intersections for limited periods of time.
这个项目是独立的 顶板项目, but both rail projects are being scheduled and coordinated to cause the least amount of disruption to customers as possible.
第一阶段对服务的影响
5月26日开始, all D and H line trains will be rerouted to Denver Union Station, 和L线服务, which connects 30th•Downing Station to the downtown loop, 将被暂停. No light rail service will operate in RTD’s central corridor through September 2024. Following completion of the project’s first phase in September, crews will pause the reconstruction work until 2025, and all light rail services will resume normal operations. RTD’s bus routes that operate along 15th and 17th streets may also be temporarily impacted during the project, and the agency is working to limit any detours in the downtown area.
With the D and H lines rerouting to Denver Union Station, RTD is planning to temporarily reintroduce its 免费MetroRide service, which will operate along 18th and 19th streets. 这两个 免费MallRide and MetroRide routes provide multiple stops between Union Station and Civic Center Station. In addition, RTD expanded service on Route 0L between I-25/Broadway Station to Civic Center Station.

第一阶段计划时间表
第2-4阶段:2025年
阶段2-4概述
The subsequent three phases of the project will begin in 2025, and work on each phase may simultaneously occur. 该机构的项目团队, 由工作人员和顾问组成, is in the process of developing comprehensive reconstruction plans for the latter phases, 其中包括:
Phase 2: Midblock Reconstruction in Downtown Loop
Phase 3: Colfax Avenue Alignment Reconstruction
第4期:威尔顿街走廊
第2-4阶段对服务的影响
As the project progresses through these phases, 公交路线和D, H线和L线 will be impacted at various times. 和第一阶段一样, RTD is developing service plans to account for the work while coordinating with City and County of Denver to minimize impacts to vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
额外的信息
The Downtown Loop in Denver’s Central Business District is part of RTD’s inaugural light 铁路 and opened in October 1994. After nearly 30 years of continual service, several segments of track along the 5.条走廊, which extends between I-25•Broadway and 30th•Downing stations, 需要全深度重建. The full-depth reconstruction process involves removing all current rail infrastructure, 混凝土, 系带和压舱物. Crews will also address drains below the 30-year-old rail system before fully rebuilding each segment.
