Light rail service in northwest Denver is one step closer to opening.
RTD will resume testing of the G Line on Tuesday morning.
The line will run from Union Station in Denver through Adams County, Arvada and onto Wheat Ridge.
Testing is scheduled to take place from about 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Friday during the first two weeks of January. More testing is possible after that, if necessary.
“This is an exciting step as we move closer toward opening the G Line and providing the public with the service they have been so patient in awaiting,” said RTD CEO and General Manager Dave Genova, in a press release. “We continue to work closely in this process with all necessary authorities.”
A judge's decision last week gave RTD the green light to resume testing.
RTD has been trying to resolve issues with crossing warning times on the A Line, and the 15 crossings on the G Line use the same technology.
While testing is underway, there will be flaggers at all crossings and train horns will sound as trains approach crossings.
