Ride the Blue, Orange or Red Line
Ride the BlueOrange or Red Line to Mockingbird Station, or the Orange or Red Line to Lovers Lane Station. If needed, you can transfer between rail lines in downtown Dallas.

Use GoPass

Roll onto the low-floor center cars 
The center car of every DART Rail vehicle has a low-floor section that offers level boarding with the rail platform – perfect for you if you bring a stroller, wagon, wheelchair, walker or another mobility device. DART’s newest buses also have low-floor sections and are equipped with ramps that deploy for level boarding from the curb. 

Park for free at a DART station
