Air Quality
Denver is the 12th most polluted region nationwide. Transportation Solutions is encouraging regional decision makers to look at how trip reduction rules can work to improve our region’s air. By asking property managers to offer information, incentives, and bike and pedestrian amenities, trip reduction rules can help improve air quality by reducing the number of people who drive on our roads. Updates on the initiative will be provided in our next newsletter.

On the Move, August 2024
Transportation Solutions continues efforts to explore e-bikes for older adults as a mobility option. Residents of the Windsor neighborhood were surveyed. Most respondents expressed interest in borrowing an e-bike to get around (74%). The most desired use was to access bike trails and get outdoors, while slightly more than half would use the bikes to run errands, and 11% would use them to get to work.
With these positive results, Transportation Solutions is moving into the next phase of the project focusing on securing the most desirable location for the e-bike library. More updates will follow as we make e-bikes more accessible to the community. Learn more about this project below!

Cherry Creek Week
The 14 upcoming development projects in Cherry Creek will bring needed housing as well as additional stores and restaurants to the area, increasing the strong tax base that it brings to the city. But can Cherry Creek handle the traffic that comes from this growth?
Transportation Solutions is working with the city, developers and community leaders to develop a vision for what Cherry Creek can be and how people will get there. Improved transit services will be critical to the vitality of Cherry Creek, as well as reducing the number of cars on the streets.
We developed a podcast series with City Cast Denver to discuss Cherry Creek’s growth and transportation improvements. Please visit their website to subscribe to the Podcast and listen to the April 17 through April 21 episodes.
