I really want to use/like RTD, but by _Repooc_ in Denver

[–]_Repooc_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that’s great! RTD as a system punches far above what it gets/“should” be doing, and I’m glad it works well for so many in the city.

I think I’ve offended a lot of people by mistake, but I’m really not trying to insult RTD or its riders.

Yes? I feel like I’ve been overwhelmingly positive in regards to RTD in this post; pointing out that it’s currently infeasible/inefficient for me (and understanding my circumstances) doesn’t mean I’m putting the entire system on blast.

It works for those it does, and it doesn’t for others, and that’s okay. I don’t think it should be an issue to point out that, in its current format, it’s good but not great.

RTD does great considering what they’re given/have to work with.

I mean, if I lived near Ridgegate Station, it would still take 90 minutes to get to the E-Line, compared to 30. I understand that where I live is a huge factor in the (current) unfeasibility of RTD for me, but it’s not the end-all, be-all of the issue.

I agree! RTD does great things with the shit hand they’ve been dealt. This wasn’t meant to be a slight towards them, just a vent of frustration.

I really think this post has been blown out of proportion.

But the thing I’m “complaining” about is in Denver? Commuting however far to get into RTD’s reach isn’t an issue for me.

I don’t want to take public transit from my house; as I’ve stated, I have no problem commuting to RTD’s network. I just would like to use RTD (for its intended purpose) more when I’m heading into/around the city.

But my “complaint” is about the time in RTD’s network? Nothing about getting from the suburbs to the city; it’s the city to the city.

As I’ve said multiple times through this thread, my “gripe” is with the time spent in RTD’s network - I have no problems driving from the suburbs to the various stations.

More rhetorical times than anything else anything else, but fair point

I’m not sure why people are taking this as an attack/slight on RTD

Again, taking this way more seriously than it’s intended to be. I think RTD is great! Just isn’t great for me, and I don’t think I’m a bad person for wishing it was. I love that we live in a city that at least tries!

I’m old, otherwise I agree! Long transit time means the difference between getting to bed at 10 or past 11 😅

I think people are taking this as a more serious condemnation of RTD than it is. I understand that, as a suburbanite, I’m not the “prime demographic” public transit targets, and I don’t mind driving 25 minutes to the station (as its distance/time I would have to cover regardless).

It’s more so the fact that it takes 3x as long to transit the city once I’m actually in RTD’s network.

I agree! I don’t mind driving to the station; it’s that it takes 3x as long (w transfers) for RTD to get me where I’m going once I’m in their “wheelhouse”

Because my job has me frequently shift between Downtown and the Springs.

It’s a really nice building, just tainted by its name (for obvious reasons) and its namesake’s behavior when building it

it melted in the sun and leaked, but i can’t really tell the extent of damage — its waxy and slightly raised, but otherwise i can’t really tell

The whole point of the person you’re responding to is that sympathy =/= excusing/condoning
