FasTracks System

FasTracks is Denver's Regional Transportation District's (RTD's) 12-year comprehensive plan to build and operate high-speed rail lines and expand and improve bus service and park-n-Rides throughout the region. It includes 119 miles of new light rail and commuter rail, 18 miles of bus rapid transit service, 21,000 new parking spaces at rail and bus stations and expanded bus service. FasTracks provides many ways to ride a bus or train including driving to a park-n-Ride and get on a bus or train, taking a bus to a rail station, walking to a bus or rail station, riding your bike to transit stations and store your bike in lockers and racks or taking it with you on buses and trains.

In December 2006, ProjectWest was awarded the contract to develop and maintain Denver's RTD FasTracks web site and launched the site in February. RTD-FasTracks.com currently features the eleven rail lines underway and houses RTD's Small Business Opportunity Office. There is an integrated site-wide calendar and an individual calendar, media center, update center and spanish version for each rail line. ProjectWest developed an innovative interactive map which allows commuters to choose the best transit combination to reach a destination (i.e. bus rapid transit, light rail, downtown circulator, etc.), locate the closest station and/or find a park-n-Ride. Content areas of the sites are editable with tiered access by the client powered by PHP. Information gathering and calendar tools are incorporated into the content manager.
