Designated Bus Lane Coming To 17th Street

DENVER (CBS4) - Denver Public Works is going to be turning one lane of traffic on 17th Street into a permanent bus lane. Next week, crews will install new signs and markings on 17th Street between Broadway and Market Street.

Buses will eventually then have a dedicated lane.

In October, DPW installed a similar lane on 15th Street which runs from Court Place to Larimer Street.

The city says these lanes make taking the bus a more convenient option.
