The first day of July in Colorado marks two things — the start of a new state fiscal year and the enactment date for numerous new laws, including free transit for two months
For a second year in a row, many transit options in Colorado will be free for riders beginning Saturday.
The pilot program was approved by the Colorado state legislature last year. Lawmakers approved roughly $28 million in grants to supplement the losses that transit agencies would face. Supporters say last year’s one-month run resulted in a 22% increase in riders during the free fare days and many of those riders decided to stay even after the fares were reinstated.
In addition to free fares, there are more than a dozen new laws that kick in Saturday. Here’s a list of a few of the new laws.The penalties for motor vehicle theft are no longer based on the value of the vehicle or vehicles stolen.
