WHAT IS TEN TOE EXPRESS?
The Denver TEN TOE express will take advantage of the current transit system in the Denver metro region by creating teams of people that bike and walk to connect with the transit system.  Among the goals of the TEN TOE express are to decrease cold starts and single occupant vehicle trips while increasing the usage of light rail and the bus network. These goals will be accomplished through awareness building and promotion of pairing transit with walking or biking as a viable transportation alternative to the single occupant vehicle. The unique part of the TEN TOE express is that it combines training for new commuting habits, health/fitness goals and a buddy system. Creating walking carpools and bikepools will demonstrate how these modes work as viable forms of transportation particularly when linked with transit as a commute option for work, personal errands and recreation. Additionally, the program will include a monthly walking and/or biking event once a month to build awareness, increase health and wellness and to connect people with the same interests and goals for our region.
