DART Police Department Announces Signing Bonus and Hiring Events

The Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) Police Department is offering a signing bonus of $5,000 for new DART Police Officers, and $2,000 for new DART Fare Enforcement Officers. DART will also hold a series of recruiting events virtually and in-person across North Texas in the month of August. More information is available at dart.org/policejobs.

The signing bonus for new Police Officers and Fare Enforcement Officers will be paid in two installments. The first installment will be paid on the first paycheck upon being hired, and the second installment will be paid upon completion of field training.

Employing a community oriented policing approach that emphasizes service, courtesy, assistance and conflict resolution, DART Police and Fare Enforcement Officers are responsible for the security and safety of customers and employees across DART's 13 city, 700 square mile service area.

DART Police Officers are licensed peace officers of the State of Texas who have all the rights, privileges, obligations, and duties of any other peace officer in the state of Texas while on the property under the control of DART or in the actual course and scope of their employment.
