RTD seems really mismanaged and has misplaced priorities. They have spent billions upon billions building extremely expensive commuter rail to parking lots in the middle of nowhere. Most of it is honestly a fancy road project with upgrades, overpasses with the rail line, etc. And the light rail is quite slow. They want to spend more money because they had cost overruns. Maybe try reducing the width of the roads/stroads/highways in the metro area first and spending a fraction of it on housing and job services. Clearly the people who are camping out in the bus terminal don't have anywhere else to go. Colorado's housing problem is an epidemic and I saw it firsthand two months ago.
