RTD has new estimates of future transit ridership for the unfunded FasTracks rail lines that show boardings will be about double what the agency predicted earlier on some of the corridors. The more robust ridership numbers, however, are coming too late for rail lines that lost out in an earlier bid for federal money. Estimated ridership was one of the factors that helped determine whether FasTracks lines met "cost-effectiveness" criteria that made them eligible for federal funds.
Feds put $424 million into FasTracks, Union Station

"Union Station is going to happen," said a gleeful Phil Washington, newly appointed general manager of the Regional Transportation District. "All the funding is now in place."
