The Regional Transportation District lifted 10 mph light rail speed restrictions for one section of the E and R lines Tuesday, the agency said in a news release.

RTD users have dealt with long delays this summer as the district tackles track repair work and maintenance, causing some trips to take two hours, according to previous reporting.

RTD officials removed the light rail speed restrictions for the E and R lines between the Belleview and Orchard stations, which was implemented June 4.

There are still between the Colorado, Yale and Southmoor stations and for the E and R lines between Orchard, Arapahoe at Village Center, Dry Creek and County Line stations, according to RTD.
