“RTD will shut down the part of the L line that runs along Welton St. for two months between April and June of 2023 to implement improved safety measures and repairs. No start or end dates have been set.
The Welton St. section of the L Line is the light rail system’s most dangerous corridor, according to an RTD report.
“The segment from 21st Street to 30th Street and Downing Street has experienced the highest number of accidents of any corridor in the light rail system, with 63 accidents occurring between 2012 to 2021,” the report reads.
The RTD board voted unanimously Wednesday to approve a contract for the repairs and improvements.”
