Visitors and residents could start hopping on and off a free downtown Colorado Springs shuttle next spring.
The new bus service is expected to run mostly up and down Tejon Street providing service to the new Robson Arena at Colorado College, the downtown bus station, among other stops. On the south end of the route the bus will connect to the new Switchbacks stadium and Olympic and Paralympic Museum on Sierra Madre Street, a conceptual route plan shows.
The new service is meant to help alleviate traffic congestion as downtown fills up with residents moving into the new apartments and attractions, such as the new Olympic and Paralympic Museum, officials working on the project said.
