For the safety of both our passengers and employees during the severe weather situation across North Texas, DART will suspend all rail operations beginning at 9:00 p.m. on Sun, Feb 14, through 11:59 p.m. on Wed, Feb 17. DART bus routes will continue to operate on a Saturday schedule.

DART is implementing Operating Scenario 2 of their Severe Winter Weather Operating Plans. All DART rail operations will be suspended, and DART bus routes will operate on normal Saturday schedules with limited service added on local routes 63 and 362. Dallas Streetcar will not operate at this time, but there will be a shuttle bus available.


It was reported that the switches were freezing up.

Right now... it's warmer in Anchorage, Alaska than it is in Dallas. It's 19F there now. It's 11F in Dallas, and the HIGH for Dallas tomorrow is ... 11F!!!
