The University of Colorado at Boulder 's Student Bus Pass Program was created in 1991 to provide students with access to local and regional transit service. The program is paid for by an administrative bus pass fee paid by all students each semester. The program is continually evolving to provide a more comprehensive transit service to students. RTD buses are divided into two types-local and regional.
Local routes serve locations within the same city while regional routes connect different cities.
The Boulder local routes consist of 11 routes within the City of Boulder and 3 routes which connect Boulder to nearby Louisville, Longmont, and Lafayette. The Boulder regional routes take students to Denver, to suburbs in which many CU students live, and to Eldora, a ski resort only 30 minutes from Boulder. The HOP is a shuttle, run by the City of Boulder, established in Fall of 1994, that runs a circuitous route to the city's main activity centers. In addition to daytime HOP service Monday through Saturday, the HOP runs in the evenings Thursday through Saturday. The Night HOP has special late night service on weekends.
