🚨Did you know?? Instead of funding safety and mobility, Denver is using the money you pay to park at meters to help people appeal parking tickets! Before the next City Council meeting on Monday, let’s make sure they know we are NOT COOL WITH THAT! 💸

With 93 traffic deaths last year, it's clear Mayor Johnston isn't prioritizing street safety, but his new $5 downtown parking scheme—actively encouraging people to drive to go drinking—goes beyond unconcerned to downright dangerous.

Instead of paying $5 for parking, consider the following:

"Preventable deaths and injuries in car crashes, unacceptable violent outcomes from the most common form of police community member contact — these are both public health crises . . . It’s an opportune time to learn from the progress we’ve made on both fronts, and to double down on that progress."

"The choice isn’t between supporting businesses and building better transit. We can, and should, do both. What Denver needs now isn’t hesitation. We need leadership that acknowledges short-term challenges, addresses them directly, and keeps our city moving forward, not stagnating."

We have a real chance to fix Colorado Blvd.

Done right, this project means a safer street, less traffic, and a faster, more reliable way to get around. Done halfway? It’s just traffic with branding.

Colorado Blvd doesn’t have to be stressful, unsafe, and congested.

There’s a plan to transform it with fast, frequent, reliable transit, but it's success depends on buses having their own lanes.

🚨Bus Rapid Transit on Colorado Blvd should be high-quality BRT with dedicated bus lanes. NOT buses stuck in the same congestion as cars.

CDOT's stuck on the status quo. Show up May 13 and tell them you want real BRT. RSVP with us for reminders: www.eventbrite.com/e/1988638650...
