RTD's Zero Fare for Better Air led to a reduction of more than 6 million pounds of greenhouse gas emissions on Front Range roads. But that's a small chunk of what the region needs to cut by 2030.
People who chose to ride the Regional Transportation District's buses and trains in July and August likely reduced the number of vehicle miles traveled by 145,393 a day, or 9 million miles over the course of two months, according to the Zero Fare for Better Air 2023 Evaluation report.
