This weekend, I was with three friends at Union Station, waiting for a bus back to boulder. While waiting, we noticed than an Uber was only $30 ($10/person) and the line for the bus was getting crowded. While $10 from Denver to Boulder is just over 2x a bus ride ($4.50 one way), the Uber dropped us off at our front door and didn't stop at 10+ bus stops along the way. The new RTD plan for Colorado was drafted before ride sharing apps became popular. - Dosen't explain the increase in cars, but does add to why people aren't flocking to public transit.
