The Deal on D2 The project development process for the  D2 Subway is steadily making progress. In fact, work is underway on the existing conditions documentation to support the Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement. With the help of the public and stakeholders who have been involved in the process, DART has been able to reach a few notable milestones. For example, the project has:

• Completed 5% level of conceptual design
• Determined the soil types and rock depth along the route, with 34 geotechnical borings since 2016
• Initiated data evaluation to help DART determine the preferred tunnel construction approach

We look forward to sharing more on these and future milestones in upcoming posts! What’s Crackin’ On the Cotton Belt The 26-mile Cotton Belt is on track to commence operations in 2022, with 10 regional rail stations across 7 cities. What does that mean for North Texans? Faster commuting for one thing. The Cotton Belt will get you to DFW Airport from Addison in just 30 mins and save 3,800 hours of daily congestion delay by 2040.

• DART has also supported UGM’s job skills program and has helped its clients regain financial independence by providing employment opportunities – both with DART, and with Hallcon, a DART contractor.
