Welcome to the Coal Creek bus page.

Taking the bus is easy, fun, productive and, of course, great for the environment. This page is your resource to answer your bus questions and make it easy for you to enjoy your public transportation.

• Effective 12/30/11, the new changes to the schedule are shown below.
• NOTE: RTD is ending it's funding of the Coal Creek Express as of January 21st. We are working on a transition plan for alternatives, however, as of now, there will be no service after the 21st.
• The 8/22/11 changes to the RTD schedule have forced slight changes to the CCE schedule. Those are reflected below. Note: there are no more Tues/Thurs-only routes. All routes are M-F.
• If the snow is really bad, RideProvide may initiate a Snow Day Schedule. This schedule is a simple change where the morning three buses leave 5 minutes earlier than regular time. This webpage will be updated promptly to indicate if a Snow Day is called. Please subscribe to the Coal Creek mailing list for another avenue to be notified of changes in the schedule.
• If you have any questions, please send them to bus@coalcreek.com and our volunteers will make sure they get answered.
• Also, please subscribe to the Coal Creek Canyon mailing list (if you haven't already) to receive updates on the bus schedule and extra bus riding hints (as well as other CCC news).
• RideProvide operates the Coal Creek Express (CCE). This service replaces the old CC bus. The schedule below reflects the Coal Creek Express' service to and from the canyon and connections to the GS bus. The cost to ride CCE is only $0.50 each way as of July 1st, 2009.
