Recommendations include the Speer and 29th Avenue stations be moved northward to 32nd Avenue to provide more direct access for North High students, families, and faculty to reach the front doors facing 32nd, to provide a direct connection to the 32 bus line, and to provide access to businesses and residents along 32nd Avenue, both east and west of Federal.

The current plan shows a southbound station in front of Walgreens and a northbound station just north of 29th Avenue. Both stops require riders to cross the Speer and Federal intersection. This intersection is one of the most dangerous and unfriendly intersections in North Denver due to the width of both streets, the angled geometry of the intersection, the turn lanes on Federal, and the allowed right turns on red on Speer. While we can understand the desire of some folks to have the stations near Speer in preparation for a future Speer BRT, creating unsafe conditions now is not a good idea. And there is no funding or planning even begun for the Speer BRT. It might never happen…
