Explore of more than 40 miles of offstreet trails and pathways that connect your neighborhood to parks, open space, shopping and schools around town. The spine trails are a great place to ride bicycles and e-mobility (as allowed under current ordinances) locally, or use them to connect to Louisville, Lafayette, and Broomfield via the Coal and Rock Creek Regional Trails. Our network of on-street bike lanes are a great place to ride your e-bike locally.

Rtd Transit Service

There are five local stops in Erie along Arapahoe Road, Erie Parkway and 119th Avenue. You can walk or ride to the local stops using the spine trail network or park-n-ride at the Erie Community Center. Taking the JUMP to the Lafayette Station will allow transfers to regional routes to Longmont and Denver.
