Help Shape Golden’s Bike Future — Take the Survey!

The City of Golden and the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) are exploring whether a docked bike share system could be a great fit for our community — and they want to hear from you!

A docked bike share system uses fixed stations where bikes are checked out and returned, making it a reliable and convenient way to get around. The study aims to understand community support, identify potential station locations, and explore how a bike share system could connect neighborhoods, downtown Golden, and the Colorado School of Mines campus to existing transportation networks.

BikeJeffCo encourages all cyclists, commuters, and community members to weigh in. Your input will directly shape the recommendations that come out of this feasibility study.
