#DowntownRailReconstruction Spotlight: What are crossing panels? This week, crews are installing crossing panels — a modern, pre-engineered track system that helps us rebuild intersections faster, safer and with fewer disruptions.
Here’s why they matter:
✅ Made of reinforced concrete for strength and longevity
✅ Pre-fitted with rail fasteners and rubber flangeway filler for quick, precise installation
✅ Ideal for busy downtown streets where efficiency is key
✅ Slip-resistant surface improves safety for cars, bikes and pedestrians
✅ Rubber filler creates a quieter, smoother ride for light rail vehicles
These panels are already proven in rail systems nationwide — and now they’re helping RTD build a stronger, more reliable rail system for the future. Innovation today means better rides tomorrow. #RideRTD #TakeTransit #BuildingBetter
