Arvada Breaks Ground On RTD Transit Hub
ARVADA, Colo. (CBS4) - Officials broke ground on Thursday on the RTD transit hub in Arvada's Olde Town district.
The transit hub -- located just east of the city's water tower -- will serve the gold commuter rail line. It will feature 600 parking spaces, a bus transfer facility and four pedestrian plazas.
The project, expected to cost $36 million, is scheduled to be completed in 2016.
City officials called the project the "crown jewel" of the gold line.
