My RIDE Smart Card
RTD’s new stored value card is provided to YOUTH, AGES 14 – 18 to help gather data about how our young people use public transit.
The City and County of Denver is partnering with the Regional Transportation District (RTD) to gain a better understanding of the transportation needs for Denver youth. Through this pilot project, 1,500 Denver high school students, ages 14 – 18, will be provided with a MyRide Smart Card preloaded with bus/rail fare, which can be used for all regular RTD bus rides, Call-n-Ride, SkyRide and rail services.
How and where can my child get a pre-loaded MYRIDE SMART CARD?
To be eligible, participants must:
- be between the ages of 14 – 18
- have a valid MY Denver Card Membership
- take an RTD Pilot online survey
- bring this waiver signed by a parent/guardian: Wavier in English | Waiver en Español
