Question:
Are DART transit centers still open?

Answer:
Beginning Friday, March 27 at 5 p.m., as a precaution against the spread of the new coronavirus, DART is temporarily closing the indoor waiting areas at all transit center locations. The agency is also temporarily closing DARTmart and Lost & Found, both of which are located at DART Headquarters in downtown Dallas at Akard Station.

The impacted transit centers include: Addison Transit Center, Arapaho Center Station, Bernal/Singleton Transfer Location, Central Business District (CBD) East Transfer Center, CBD West Transfer Center, Cockrell Hill Transfer Location, Downtown Garland Station, Downtown Irving/Heritage Crossing Station, Hampton Station, Illinois Station, Jack Hatchell Transit Center, J.B. Jackson Transit Center, Lake June Station, Lake Ray Hubbard Transit Center, Ledbetter Station, Parker Road Station, Red Bird Transit Center, South Garland Transit Center, and Westmoreland Station.

But we are still serving customers remotely.

Customers who have lost items on DART property should contact Lost & Found at 214-749-3810. If the lost item is found, Security staff at DART Headquarters will be able to retrieve the item for the customer, but customers must first contact Lost & Found before going to DART Headquarters.
