40th Ave & Airport BlvdâGateway Park station is accessible via Salida Street. It has a bus bay directly adjacet to the eastbound platform as well as a large park-n-ride. Riders of westbound trains must cross tracks to exit the station as there is no access to the station from the west.
40th Ave & Airport BlvdâGateway Park station features a public art piece titled Time Present as a part of RTD's Art-n-Transit program. The sculptures, painted by Molly Dilworth, consist of painted metal polyhedrons. The piece sits at roughly 50 feet wide and 12 feet tall and is mounted on the station's east platform wall. Time Present was inspired by Buckminster Fuller and said to honor experimentation, innovation, and future problem solving. [5] [6]
