DART Severe Winter Weather Operating Plans

En Español

Rider's guide to partial or full rail service shutdown due to inclement weather

DART has developed contingency plans designed to maintain service to and from each of our transit facilities, should winter weather disrupt normal rail operations. They are a combination of rail and shuttle bus when limited rail service is permitted (Operating Scenario One), or a bus-only network in the event of a total rail shutdown (Operating Scenario Two).

Under either scenario, DART bus routes will operate on their normal Saturday schedules, plus implement limited service on Routes 63, 362, 206, 208, 210, 278, 283 and 509. View the Park & Ride locations served by these bus routes.

In the event either plan is necessary, notices will be placed on DART.org and sent to local media outlets 6-8 hours prior to start of service on the day of implementation. Please keep this information handy during the winter season, as it contains important information regarding your daily commute.

Note: During severe weather, the Trinity Railway Express (TRE) commuter rail may experience delays.
