The Regional Transportation District will hold a public hearing Tuesday, Sept. 1, on its plan to issue a request for proposals for its public-private partnership — dubbed P3 — to build three rail lines and a rail car maintenance facility for FasTracks.

The meeting will be at 5:30 p.m. at RTD’s offices at 1600 Blake St. RTD plans to issue the RFP on Sept. 30, a spokeswoman said.

RTD is seeking a team of private partners to design, build, finance, operate and maintain three rail lines: the East Corridor from downtown to Denver International Airport, the Gold LIne to Arvada and Wheat Ridge, and a small segment of the Northwest Rail line from downtown to south Westminster, plus a commuter rail maintenance facility.
