Downtown in Motion:
Easy, Connected, Evolving

In Downtown Longmont, how you move matters. Whether you're on foot, biking in, hopping on a bus, grabbing a microtransit ride, or parking and strolling—Downtown makes it easy. The LDDA helps shape the systems that keep our community connected by investing in smart infrastructure, championing transit solutions, and creating people-friendly pathways that invite everyone to explore more. We’re all about movement that feels natural, accessible, and joyfully local.

LDDA’s Role in Transportation & Connectivity

  • Walkable & Bikeable by Design
    We support pedestrian-focused design, improved crossings, and trail-to-downtown connections to ensure it's safe and seamless to explore on foot or by bike.
  • Partnering on Smart Transit
    We work closely with the City of Longmont and transit agencies to make downtown more accessible via shared rides, microtransit, and regional buses.
  • Data-Informed Improvements
    From parking studies to wayfinding plans, we use data and stakeholder input to guide upgrades and prioritize ease of access across all modes.
  • Parking with Purpose
    Our “park once, explore freely” approach emphasizes proximity, simplicity, and encouraging discovery across the district.

Downtown Projects Supporting Active Transportation

Downtown Longmont is part of a broader city vision to create multimodal mobility, and several projects bring this to life:

  • Coffman Street Busway Mobility Project
    This transformative redesign adds a center-running bus lane and protected bike lane, making downtown the hub of Longmont’s transit future.
  • Quiet Zones
    Efforts are underway to implement quiet zones at downtown rail crossings, improving safety and reducing train noise in our most walkable areas.
  • First & Main Transit Station
    Downtown’s future regional transit center will connect Longmont to the broader Front Range with commuter rail, bike access, and walkable connections to Main Street.
