Glenwood is a potential long-term option, but not for the start of C Line service.

  • Potential to serve multiple corridors with rapid bus and LRT
  • C Line will run on Olson at start of service

– Temporary stations can move during LRT construction

  • Potential long-term Glenwood realignment dependent upon:

– Realignment study outcomes – METRO Blue Line Extension LRT operations

Is the C Line running on Glenwood Avenue?

  • Time for us to listen: discussion on transit needs,

C Line benefits, and C Line concerns.

– What is the most important transit need on Glenwood Avenue right now? – What is the most important benefit the C Line rapid bus can bring to Glenwood Avenue? – What is the biggest concern regarding the C Line rapid bus running on Glenwood Avenue?
