Light rail service experiences temporary interruption in downtown Denver due to power outage

An outage in Denver temporarily knocked out power to "the entire downtown area" just as the Broncos game was coming to an end, according to RTD.

Around 4:45 p.m., RTD Public Information Officer Tina Marquez said they were trying to "build a bus bridge" between 10th Avenue and Osage Street and Alameda due to the interruption to the light rail service. The outage has affected the D Line, E Line and W Line. Service has since been restored.

Xcel said around 4:30 p.m., a car struck a pole near 4th Avenue and Lipan Street and knocked it down across the light rail tracks.

RTD encouraged riders to follow the RTD app's service alerts.
