Keep DART in Plano

💙💕

On June 14,1996, DART Rail made its very first trip. What started as 11 miles of track along the Red and Blue lines in Dallas has grown into one of the nation's most expansive light rail systems. With the opening of more stations and lines -- including the Green and Orange lines -- DART Rail now spans 93 miles across the region.

We are proud to serve the riders, communities, and visitors who make this system worth building. Here's to 30 years of DART Rail, and to the many more adventures ahead.

And so it begins… We will be monitoring and showing up to any transit related vote from here on!

A note from Keep DART in Plano:

At this time, we are not taking an overall stance on the Dallas Stars / Willow Bend arena proposal. However, we will be on record recommending that the City of Plano collaborate with DART in earnest on transportation solutions for this site. Impacts on Plano residents will be immediate: construction disruption first, then game nights that will make that corridor a real challenge to navigate. This venue will already pay into the DART system. That’s an opportunity for a real transit solution, and it deserves a real plan.
