FrontRange Express (FREX), a commuter bus service that provides transportation between Denver and Colorado Springs, could come to an end thanks to budget cuts in Colorado Springs, CBS4Denver reports.
The city of Colorado Springs, which created and manages FREX, is threatening to terminate the program due to “unprecedented budget shortfalls.” City officials say service past Jan. 1 is doubtful.
FREX makes stops in Castle Rock and Monument. Castle Rock will likely follow Colorado Springs’ lead and eliminate FREX’s funding as well. City officials say their priority has to be core services, such as police and fire.
