DART Authorizes GoLink Pilot Program for South Dallas/Fair Park Area

The Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) Board approved a six-month pilot demonstration of their successful on-demand, personalized, curb-to-curb service called GoLink for areas around South Dallas and Fair Park.

Working with the South Dallas/Fair Park (SDFP) Transportation Initiative group, a survey was done of 200 residents of zip codes 75210 and 75215 that identified concerns that the pilot demonstration hopes to rectify.

Through the survey, the SDFP group noted that the South Dallas-Fair Park neighborhood has extensive bus and rail service, but that bus travel within the neighborhood can be difficult for very short trips, particularly to the recreation center and grocery stores. The area is currently served by three DART rail stations, MLK, Jr. Station, Fair Park Station and Hatcher Station, as well as 10 bus routes.
