The Transportation & Mobility Board meeting held on September 24, 2025, in Littleton, Colorado, focused on gathering insights from local businesses regarding transportation issues in the area. The meeting highlighted a recent survey conducted by the Littleton Chamber of Commerce, which aimed to understand the transportation needs and concerns of its members.
The survey reached over 200 business owners, with 53 responding. The majority of respondents were from small businesses, primarily in the office, retail, and restaurant sectors. The survey results revealed that nearly all employees of these businesses rely on personal vehicles for commuting, with a notable lack of alternative transportation methods such as biking or walking, despite some businesses offering bike racks and showers.
A significant concern raised by the respondents was the lack of parking, particularly in Downtown Littleton. While some businesses reported having adequate parking facilities, many comments indicated that parking availability remains a pressing issue in the downtown area.
During the discussion, board members expressed surprise at the number of larger businesses in Littleton, estimating around 15 to 20 companies with over 100 employees. This revelation underscored the diversity of the local business landscape and the varying transportation needs that come with it.
The meeting concluded with a commitment to further analyze the survey data and explore potential solutions to improve transportation and parking in Littleton, emphasizing the importance of addressing these issues for the benefit of local businesses and their employees.
