GET INVOLVED
Dear Keep DART in Plano Supporter,
Collin County is now accepting applications for the Collin County Connects Committee, which will help shape the future of mobility in our region. This is an important opportunity for residents who care about public transportation to have a voice in Plano’s transit planning.
Apply here before Wednesday, Nov 20: https://tx-plano.form.transform.civicplus.com/59301
Recent News on Transit in Plano:
• Plano moves forward with special election to decide whether to stay in DART
Plano is pushing a May 2026 vote on whether to leave DART—a move that could dismantle regional transit access and isolate Plano from future rail expansion.
• Plano makes an offer it hopes DART can’t refuse
City leaders propose cutting bus service and replacing it with micro-transit while keeping rail. This plan risks reducing accessibility for seniors, workers, and students who rely on fixed-route buses.
• TxDOT unveils plan to expand transit statewide
Texas is planning for a 40% population increase by 2050 with expanded transit options. Plano’s move to exit DART runs counter to this statewide vision for connected communities.
Save the Date:
Join us for a Keep DART in Plano Meetup on December 8, just before the Plano City Council meeting. More details coming soon!
Thank you for standing with us to keep transit accessible and equitable in Plano.
