What is MAX ?

The conversion to Mason Street in Downtown is in preparation of MAX Bus Rapid Transit service. When complete, MAX will travel with vehicles on Mason Street in Downtown; it continues south in its own dedicated guideway on the east side of the BNSF railroad tracks until Drake. At the intersection, MAX merges with traffic and travels with vehicles on McClelland Avenue until Horsetooth. South of Horsetooth, MAX is again in its dedicated guideway all the way to the South Transit Center. Now through early 2014 construction is underway to make MAX service a reality!
