Gold Line Transit Corridor

The Gold Line Transit Corridor is one of eight Metro Denver corridor projects in the RTD FasTracks mass transit plan. The Gold Line is proposed as an 11-mile rail system that will extend along the existing BNSF railroad corridor in Arvada from the Downtown Denver Union Terminal west to I-70 and Ward Road park-n-ride.

Four stations are planned to provide service to the Arvada community. The station locations are near Ward Road, near Kipling Parkway (Arvada Ridge Site), near the Wadsworth Bypass (Olde Town Arvada) and near Sheridan Boulevard.

RTD is currently conducting an Environmental Impact Statement study on this project, and the current schedule is for construction to start in 2011 and the line will open for use in 2016.
