DENVER – Active-duty U.S. military personnel will be able to ride for free on RTD through the year.
RTD directors voted Thursday to give the personnel free rides on the transit system’s buses and light-rail cars in November and December.
To get the free service, members of the military will have to show their Geneva Conventions armed forces identification card, Regional Transportation District officials said. It’s estimated that there are about 6,700 active duty military personnel in the Denver area, including reserve and National Guard troops.
The free service does not apply to military dependents.
