Meeting/Event Information

All aboard! Join the ITE Colorado/Wyoming Section this September for an exciting look at the future of passenger rail in Colorado. This special luncheon will feature two presentations highlighting major rail initiatives that have the potential to transform how people travel throughout the state.

We'll begin with the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) Mountain Rail Team, who will share updates on the Mountain Rail Project, an exciting effort to connect Denver with Colorado's mountain communities and ultimately Craig through passenger rail.

We'll then hear from the Front Range Passenger Rail Team, who will present the Colorado Connector (CoCo), a proposed passenger rail system that would link communities along the Front Range and provide a fast, reliable, and sustainable transportation option for Colorado's growing population.

Whether you're passionate about multimodal transportation, planning, rail infrastructure, or simply curious about what's next for Colorado's transportation network, this luncheon offers a unique opportunity to hear directly from the teams leading these transformative projects.

The event will also include networking with transportation professionals from across Colorado and Wyoming, opportunities to ask questions during a joint Q&A session, and updates on upcoming ITE Section activities.
