To ensure the health and safety of customers and employees, DART is temporarily closing the indoor waiting areas at all transit center locations in response to the spread of the coronavirus, which causes COVID-19.

Beginning Friday, March 27 at 5:00 p.m., all transit center waiting areas will be closed, but DART riders can continue to use the outdoor areas for boarding buses and light rail vehicles. On DART buses with rear doors, customers will also be required to board the vehicle through the rear access.

All Station Concierge personnel have been reassigned to monitor and amplify customer service initiatives and augment DART's enhanced cleaning protocols on all bus and light rail vehicles.

Passengers are urged to practice social distancing while waiting to board DART vehicles and while on all buses and trains. That means maintaining a six-foot distance between fellow riders and your DART operator.
