DART ’ s New Bus Network Debuts Jan . 24
On Jan . 24 , 2022 , DART will begin service on its New Bus
Network . As the name implies , this service change will be a complete overhaul of DART ’ s bus system and GoLink services , which means every route will change in some way . The agency also will restore light rail service to pre-pandemic frequency .
DART ’ s New Bus Network will be simpler , better , faster and easier . More people will live within a half mile of DART service . You ’ ll have better access to jobs and a faster commute . Routes will have improved frequency and longer hours . GoLink will add coverage to more residential and commercial areas . There are a lot of improvements to look forward to .
IF YOU ARE A CURRENT DART RIDER , HERE ARE SOME OF THE KEY CHANGES TO EXPECT :
• All new routes and numbers : The bus route ( s ) you ride today will no longer exist . All routes will be replaced by new routes with a new number and / or with GoLink service . Soon we will post a chart that lets you look up your current route and find your future service . You also can use our interactive map to look up specific addresses on GoPass . org under “ Find My New Route .”
• Some fixed-route service replaced by GoLink : Some fixed-route bus service will be replaced with DART ’ s on-demand GoLink service . We are doubling the number of GoLink zones , often providing coverage to areas that have little or no bus service now . Plus , we ’ re starting the new GoLink services early on Dec . 6 so you can try it out before the big January service change . Visit GoPass . org and click on “ GoLink On Demand ” to learn more .
• Bus stops will be eliminated : Prior to Jan . 24 , you will see bags covering your bus stop signs that show the current bus service at that stop ... and tell you what the future service will be . If the bus stop is scheduled to be removed , we ’ ll tell you that , too , and let you know what the nearest new route or GoLink zone will be .
