Reduced Fares for Seniors and People
with Disabilities

Paratransit

DART Paratransit Service is an origin to destination, curb-to-curb, public transportation service for people with disabilities who are unable to use DART fixed route buses or trains. Paratransit is a shared-ride service operated with modern, accessible vehicles, and taxi cabs.

Travel Training

DART offers Travel Training to people with disabilities who may need assistance using public transportation. This training is particularly helpful for people not eligible for paratransit curb-to-curb service, or those eligible to use curb-to-curb service only for specific trips such as medical appointments.

Frequently Asked Questions

You are responsible for keeping your smartphone charged while riding the bus or train, just as customers must keep track of their paper ticket or transit pass card. If your phone dies, you must purchase a new ticket from a ticket vending machine (TVM) or bus farebox for your trip.

Yes! The system will determine and charge the “best fare” when you Tap your GoPass Tap card at the card reader. As an example, you tap your card at 10 a.m. and the card system charges your account $2 for a Midday Pass. When you board again at 1 p.m., the system does not charge you because you are still within the Midday Pass period. When you tap again at 3 p.m., the system charges you an additional $3 for a PM Pass. Your total trip costs $5 – less than a Day Pass!

You can purchase or add value to your GoPass Tap card account at hundreds of retail locations; online at GoPass.org; or by calling DART Customer Service at 214-979-1111 and select the option, “For questions or issues with your tap card.”
