North Texas continues to experience explosive growth. How and where our riders use our service has shifted with new employment districts emerging across the region, as well as a steady increase in single and multifamily housing construction.
To better respond to these changes, DART has taken a comprehensive look at our bus system. The result: a complete redesign of the bus network that, if approved, will serve new destinations and have improved frequency on more bus routes.
Three things you should know:
- Most of DART’s regular, local fixed-route bus route service would be noticeably different with the proposed changes. The agency is trying to provide more riders with better access to jobs and other destinations.
- Nothing is final yet. DART staff presented the agency’s board of directors with a draft service plan earlier this month, but now it goes to the public for input.
- The public will have an opportunity to weigh in on these proposed changes and help shape future service. The agency will soon offer a mix of socially distanced tactics to gather input from riders, including an online survey and virtual community meetings.
