DART is making improvements at many of its stations and passenger facilities to give its system a cleaner, safer and modern appeal. Most improvements are based on input from our customers through surveys and include:

• Optimized lighting
• Improved visibility of light-rail vehicles and buses
• Real-time arrival/departure information
• Level boarding
• Greater protection from the elements
• New ticket vending machines

Along the Red and Blue lines, 23 station platforms will be raised to provide level boarding and greater access for all, especially those with limited mobility or traveling with strollers. The platforms on the Orange and Green lines have already been raised.

DART’s Cityplace/Uptown station will see many changes, including new escalators and inclinators, a brighter design, and raised platforms.

A pilot bus shelter prototype was released in late 2024 based on designs informed by our customers. After gathering user feedback, DART will make any necessary design changes to ensure the final shelter design best serves our riders’ needs. Customers can anticipate a rollout of the new shelters by late 2025 or early 2026.
