Hard pass on Lot M, Mr. Mayor

August 25, 2026

Mayor Johnston’s vision for the Mile High Line hinges in part on the Denver Broncos’ plans for Burnham Yard, the site of the new stadium. To make room for the development, Denver Water must relocate its Operations Complex to a different site. The problem? Their preferred site is a non-starter for DSP and our coalition partners. Along with 38 other community partners, we sent a letter to the Johnston administration to encourage the City to find an alternate location.

We had every single bus stop on Federal Boulevard assessed – here are the results

August 4, 2020

Many bus stops in the city lack even the most basic amenities such as seating, protection from the elements, and lighting. We recommend adding these amenities as short-term improvements that would enhance safety, comfort, and convenience for riders along RTD’s second-busiest corridor. On a long-term scale, we recommend much more substantial improvements to Federal’s roadway design and streetscape.
