Shanahan Ridge Neighbors

Ride the RTD

Feb 14, 2008

Many residents have found that the best downtown Boulder or Denver parking is in their own garage! South Boulder and in particular, Shanahan Ridge, is served by frequent, efficient public transit.

The "SKIP" commuter bus makes stops along Shanahan Ridge every 10-30 minutes depending on rush-hour or holiday schedules. The friendly green buses sneak residents quickly to downtown Boulder via Table Mesa Shopping Center and the Broadway Ave corridor. The bus has an easily understandable "back and forth" service run originating in our neighborhood and terminating in the far reaches of North Boulder. SKIP's route follows Broadway Ave. north and then returns with a "lolly pop" type routing in our neighborhood--west on Greenbriar Blvd, north on Leahy, east on Table Mesa Drive, for the return trip along Broadway Avenue to town.

Residents can make quick shopping trips to Table Mesa, University Hill, Downtown Boulder, and North Boulder centers. Special events on CU campus are easily reached.... minus the parking hassle and expense of taking the family car. "Uncle Tim" can go for a drink in North Boulder and return home safely without getting behind the wheel.

Colorado Rockies, Denver Broncos, The Avalanche, the Denver Performing Arts Center and the entire LightRail corridor of Denver become accessable with a simple rendezvous with our "SKIP" service and the "B" or "B Express" bus at Table Mesa and Broadway. Consult the website for schedule details.

Going out of town via Denver International Airport? Catch the "AB" bus from the same location (adjacent to the Conoco and Church on Table Mesa, east of Broadway). No more expensive risky storage of the car at DIA.

For a small investment in bus travel time, commuters gain reading, napping, and laptop commuting output--all while being "chauffeured" by a professional driver.

The best "Rockies" parking spot and traffic-free return trip from Denver? Your Shanahan garage and RTD's bus service!
