DART proposes bus changes for 2007
Ever wish your bus trip was quicker, more frequent and with more destinations? Let DART know at one of several pre-public hearing community meetings scheduled throughout October where a series of recommended DART bus service modifications will be discussed.
Suggested modifications include minor bus schedule adjustments to provide easier connections, as well as adding and combining routes to reach more employment and retail destinations for bus routes: 21, 37, 42, 44, 60, 165, 185, 301, 307, 308, 314, 316, 331, 384, 408, 415, 428, 441, 463, 475, 486, 505, 506, 553, 560 and 562.
