Serving Colorado Communities with Quality Transportation Services Since 1979
Via’s transportation service contributions have been far-reaching and diverse for over four decades. Our broad array of services ranges from our Via Paratransit (accessible transportation) program, which provides on-demand, door-through-door service with wheelchair-accessible vehicles, to rides on the HOP to the University of Colorado-Boulder campus or downtown Boulder.
Organizations hire Via to operate specialty contract services such as RTD’s FlexRide since 2000, the City of Boulder’s HOP public bus, and many other shuttles, including Park-to-Park for Chautauqua, the Eldo shuttle to Eldorado Canyon State Park, and the Littleton Omnibus. Via reliably partners with local and state governments, businesses, and other organizations to provide the right-size service.
Beyond direct transportation, we extend our impact through mobility management services, including educational outreach, information and referrals, and individual travel planning designed to foster informed mobility choices and improve accessibility.
Via’s team is headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, and we have a satellite facility in the Denver Metro area on Franklin Street in Adams County. Click here to meet Via’s key staff and Board of Directors.
Strategic Partnerships Support the Advancement of Public Transit Accessibility, Efficiency, and Reliability
Our strategic alliances with the Regional Transportation District, the City of Boulder, Boulder County, and several local governments greatly enhance public transportation’s effectiveness. For example, we aim to bridge the gap between mobility providers, businesses, public institutions, and the public through our partnership with Colorado Carshare, Boulder BCycle, Commuting Solutions, and Boulder Transportation Connections.
Being future-forward, Via invests in reducing the carbon footprint of transportation in Colorado. We are pioneers in using zero-tailpipe emissions vehicles and renewable energy sources, offering smart and efficient transportation alternatives. Recently, we acquired a 4.5-acre site near our headquarters on 63rd Street in Boulder to establish a collaborative zero-emission vehicle maintenance, charging, and training center with several of the region’s leading transportation providers.
