Although DART is getting ready to react quickly to the weather in order to keep buses and trains running, it advises passengers to anticipate delays on Thursday.
Is DART running tomorrow?
We know:
For at least 48 hours, Wednesday will be Dallas’s final dry day. On Thursday, snow and a wintry mix will pour into the region.
“The city, people, and DART will work together to ensure that people have safe transportation,” DART Spokesperson Jasmyn Carter stated.
DART transportation stations will be open from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. starting Thursday.
DART had to contend with snow and ice on roads, railroads, and train terminals between 2023 and 2024.
According to Carter, they are ready to clear those locations, but travelers should be ready for any delays.

Because of the weather, a number of school districts are shutting on Thursday and Friday.
“We want to make sure you do move with the thought process that rides will have impacted times,” Carter stated. “That is for safety, to ensure that the street is clean and that people may board it safely. Out of prudence, make sure you are ready to arrive late.
The city of Dallas got its trucks and salt barn ready. Priority road clearing is given to major thoroughfares and those near important structures, such as hospitals.
Winter weather does not allow everyone to stay at home. Chip Waggoner, a traffic reporter for FOX 4, offers some safety tips for anyone who has to drive.
What is unknown to us:
It is still unknown when routes may be affected. Additionally, it’s uncertain if DART will halt any services if the roads become too hazardous.
“It depends on the circumstances. People want to get to work and get home, so we want to maintain the status quo. However, that depends on the circumstances,” Carter stated. “Our DART community includes the homeless population. We have added shelters that anybody may visit on our DART website and GoPass, but our warming centers are for our passengers.
According to DART, weather updates will be available on its app and online. For the most recent information, users without internet access can contact DART at 214-979-1111.
