Reviews: What People Think About Denver Transit: RTD Bus TImes

JaredHylton

Rating: 4/5

I love RTD as a whole. The system, the thought behind (most) of it, the way it’s been implemented and handled over time. The amount of accidents and crashes, fatalities and injuries are FAR below many other major US rail networks, LR or CR included in that mix. The app needs some work though, still; implement arrival times for the trains based off of Google Maps and Apple Maps APIs if you don’t have live train tracking — however, if you DO, please do consider activating the app to see where and when the trains are as well; I notice the train schedule still guesses, where Google Maps almost ALWAYS knows when the train is going to arrive. Just a thought; some trains and buses have been missed because of the app inaccuracy. Please make a note to add more sources for arrivals and departures for the entire network; ALSO, please include the Amtrak trains that go up to the Winter Resorts! This would encourage people to preview and potentially take the Amtrak trains vs driving up I-70 with enough information about the trains, luggage, pricing, etc… it could really help make Amtrak a better travel solution overall in CO, but for sure as a faster and safer alternative than I-70 or other mountain roads nearby.

I love what this app could be. All the basics are there and I’d love to see some fine tuning of features. The Alarms feature is great for notifications of the next departure from my selected stop, but I have to see more than just the line I’m interested in. Other features work under very specific situations which never seem to work for my needs. I love the bus live tracking. I recommend for people not wanting to look at the time table chart.

Problem #1 is that their in-app “Send Feedback” page doesn’t allow you to submit your message, so there is no way to contact them without digging on the internet to try and find contact info. Proble #2: I wasted my time finding their website and typing out a message only to encounter another error with their contact form - HTTP 401 on their own form submission to their own site. If they can’t even maintain their basic website, I have no hopes for the app to be improved. Now, on to the app: The routing could use an refactor. For a trip from North Boulder to Union Station, a chosen route taking the 204 to FF2, why do you have the trip transfer at Broadway and 20th instead of the downtown boulder station? One reason to do this is to ensure that one can get on the FF2 with luggage or a bicycle. Another benefit is that when people board the FF2 at the station while the bus is just sitting idle is that the trip times will decrease with less people getting on the bus mid-route, decreasing dwell time. Making apps for public transportation should not just check a list of features, it should be tested and thought out to the actual experience. Otherwise it’s just another app in the App Store.
