City of Boulder EcoPass


Eco Pass

The EcoPass is an annual RTD (Regional Transportation District) transit pass for unlimited regional, express, local bus and light rail service throughout the Denver and Boulder areas. 

The EcoPass Smart Card allows you to ride for free on all RTD services seven days a week as long as you are an eligible employee. This includes local buses, express buses, regional buses, SkyRide service to and from Denver International Airport (DEN), the "N" to Eldora Mountain ski resort, all Community Transit Network buses like the HOP, SKIP, JUMP, BOUND, DASH, STAMPEDE and BOLT and all call-n-ride services.

Businesses within the Central Area General Improvement District (CAGID) and/or the Downtown Boulder Business Improvement District (BID) Area tax district or the University Hill General Improvement District (UHGID), with at least a six month commercial lease, are included in the City of Boulder Community Vitality Commercial District Sponsored Employee EcoPass Program.

Check with your office to receive an RTD EcoPass Authorization Form which needs to be filled out with the employee’s full legal name and signed by the authorized manager or owner.
