I was here and the committee sounded so angry, and the answers from Plano were lacking.
A DART board member tells me Farmers Branch and Highland Park will also discuss holding withdrawal elections from the agency. Much of the broader coverage has focused on the suburbs itching to bail. Here's a profile of a group fighting to keepβand improveβDART. labreportdallas.com/p/dart-s-big...
Dallas's Silver Line is Now OPEN!
Chris was invited by @ridewithdata.org to ride on the inaugural trip last week. Learn more about the new rail line, hear from local advocates, and see what it looks like in action!
Out now wherever you watch or listen π
Thanks to Chris from @transittangents.bsky.social for coming up to DFW and joining us at the opening of the Silver Line! Check out Transit Tangentsβs new video on DARTβs brand new line here:
Are you referring to the safety event tomorrow in Plano?
The Silver Line arrives at Addison Station for the opening celebration:

The blocking of the media from posting on Reddit is egregious and shouldnβt be allowed. I demand that the Plano mods try taking a bus or train for once.
I wanna point out I donβt live in Addison nor do I transit through Addison, but hearing the riders stories of how much longer their commutes would be would be devastating if the buses were moved off Quorum. Why should we prioritize noise over safety of riders?
Everything I have is from early July 4th weekend. GET ME OUTTT
At least you didnβt get 20+ HBO Max videos in a row

I never thought love streaming a public hearing while at work and live-skeeting at the same time would be time consuming. But it genuinely was.
Here at the DART pre-Public Hearing community meeting for feedback on next yearβs proposed fare increases and service cuts. 67 people here at Akard to give what will likely be scathing remarks on the service cuts.
Choo choo
Some notes from the Carrollton Pre-Public hearing this evening:
Many impassioned Paratransit riders expressed serious concerns with the potential restructuring . To them, it is already a service that is struggling to meet their needs as is.
These cuts would be catastrophic for Paratransit!

DART is taking public comments on service cuts that would be required to fund the 5% General Mobility Program that gives DART funding back to the cities. Our transit network needs to be growing, not shrinking- speak out against these cuts at these meetings this June!
Oh and in case my work sees this, yeah I had my work tabs open too.
Actually I had 3 screens last night, committee meetings, stars game, and a Texas House session. π
