DUS Construction

Construction of DUS

Construction of the transit elements of the Denver Union Station redevelopment project will begin in early 2010. Elements include a new
Light Rail Terminal and re-alignment of tracks, an underground Bus Terminal,
a new Commuter Rail Terminal and tracks, and reconfiguration of
several streets.

Kiewit Western Company is the contractor for this design-build job that will take approximately 48 months to build after notice to proceed.

New Transit Hub

What will Union Station look like?

As the hub of RTD’s FasTracks program, the redevelopment of Denver Union Station is a crucial component of one of the largest transportation projects in North America. The multimodal hub will knit many different transportation modes and six new public plazas in one place with convenient, attractive and engaging pedestrian and bicycle connections. The Historic Station, the symbol of the project and heart and soul of the transit district, will be rehabilitated to its historic prominence. Upon completion, Denver Union Station will be an exciting destination and a major transportation gateway to the region.
