On the eve of its 25th anniversary in 2008, Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) continues to expand to meet the public transportation needs of residents in Dallas and 12 other member cities.

Voters created and funded the regional transit agency with a 1-cent local sales tax on Aug. 13, 1983. Besides Dallas, the system’s service area comprises Addison, Carrollton, Cockrell Hill, Farmers Branch, Garland, Glenn Heights, Highland Park, Irving, Plano, Richardson, Rowlett and University Park. It includes approximately 130 bus routes, 45 miles of light rail, 31 freeway miles of high occupancy vehicle lanes and paratransit service for the mobility impaired. DART and the Fort Worth Transportation Authority also jointly operate 35 miles of commuter rail service, the Trinity Railway Express, linking downtown Dallas and Fort Worth with stops in the mid-cities and DFW International Airport.
