Big day for @ridedart and #DSMUSA!

Beginning today, you can ride one of DART's all-electric buses. These clean energy buses will travel on Route 60, Ingersoll and University. #DARTelectric



Thanks @BusinessRecord for highlighting the great work of our operators! They are deserving of this recognition alongside the many other essential workers in #DSMUSA.

Proud to have one of our own on the cover of the @BusinessRecord: fixed route operator Gerald Washington! Several of our bus operators were featured in this latest issue on essential workers. #DSMStrong Read the story here: bit.ly/3gzH6vM

A big thanks to all essential workers but especially to my @ridedart colleagues who have continued to ensure essential employees can get to work and ensure central Iowa can access essential services.

DART thanks our front line staff who have made it possible for us to provide essential transit service during this pandemic. We are DART, we are #DSMStrong.

Today is Transit Employee Appreciation Day, which is celebrated annually to honor bus operators, maintenance staff and others working in transit. We are so grateful for everyone that keeps DART moving, now more than ever.

Public transit is an essential service so @ridedart is continuing to operate but taking precautions to protect the health and safety of our employees and passengers.

Effective immediately, DART is temporarily pausing all fare collection and is encouraging all riders who are able to use the back door to get on (and off) the bus. More information on the proactive measures DART is taking can be found at ridedart.com.

Major cities across the country are investing in #publictransit. @cta secured $7 B and New York’s MTA secured $51 B for capital projects.


Full room this morning at #APTAtransform19. Looking forward to hearing from @randizuckerberg.

Nearly 9 in 10 #publictransit trips have a direct impact on local economies, adding up to billions of dollars in positive economic activity every year. SHARE to help strengthen our local and national economies! #transitopportunity #voices4transit

Excited to be rolling out some big changes to our service in a few weeks! These changes should improve access to public transit for many central Iowa residents.

It was heartwarming to watch my DART colleagues read to third graders this morning. I’m amazed at how much the students enjoyed interacting with us, and nearly half of the students had ridden DART!

Thanks @UnitedWayCI for providing thousands of adults in central Iowa with an opportunity to connect with their community today during Day of Action. DART volunteers had a blast reading with students at Monroe Elementary.
