Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) will implement updated fare pricing effective March 1.
The adjustments are designed to simplify the fare structure, improve equity across rider categories, and support the long-term sustainability of transit service across DART’s 13 member cities.
DART’s New Fare Structure
Most notably, a Regional Day Pass will be reduced to $9. Reduced-fare day passes, available to eligible individuals including seniors, persons with disabilities, Medicare cardholders, and qualifying students, will be corrected to $4.50. Reduced fare passes are typically 50% off regular fare, and these March 1 changes reflect that.
A Regional pass allows a purchaser access to all services from DART, Trinity Metro, and Denton County Transit Authority under one fare.
Fare Changes Effective March 1 include:
Regional Day Pass
Current Regular Fare: $12.00
New Regular Fare: $9.00
Current Reduced Fare: $3.00
New Reduced Fare: $4.50
Regional 31 Day Pass
Current Regular Fare: $192.00
New Regular Fare: $192.00
Current Reduced Fare: $48.00
New Reduced Fare: $96.00
Under the new fare structure, the DART Senior Retail Annual Pass has been discontinued. Previous users of this product are encouraged to use a Reduced Fare 31-Day Pass.
The DART Service
DART provides bus, light rail, GoLink, paratransit, and commuter rail services across 700 square miles, moving more than 220,000 riders daily. Fare revenues support service reliability, safety investments, and fleet modernization as North Texas continues to grow, said agency officials.
Updated fares will be reflected in the GoPass app, on DART’s website, at ticket vending machines, and across all customer materials before March 1.
