Have you seen the new proposed DART bus network? Here’s a closer look at a few things in the new plan:

Buses will come more often, 7 days a week.

Fewer stops so trips are faster and on time.

Schedules line up at DART Central Station, so you have a shorter wait to transfer.

Microtransit service in three suburbs.

This new network was designed to do the most we can with the funding from our member communities. It increases the number of residents close to transit and to frequent bus service.
