Boulder Chamber Transportation Connections

Today is the 35th anniversary of the #AmericansWithDisabilitiesAct, a historic civil rights law that protects the rights of people with disabilities. In our #Boulder community, @viacolorado is a local nonprofit that makes #transportation more accessible for all. @BoulderChamber

🚄 Rail by 2029 update! Massive coalition at last week's forum: Mayor Peck, Sen. Wallace, RTD directors, Gov. Polis' staff, both chambers & transit experts. Sundance can be our "Olympic moment" like LA/Salt Lake. Regional rail = economic growth + climate action. @boulderchamber
