The Des Moines Area Regional Transit Authority (DART) is expanding its network of bus shelters and incorporating public art into their design with the help of a funding partnership with Bravo Greater Des Moines and a statewide call for artists issued by the Iowa Arts Council.
After May 3, 2021, DART will begin removing chains and signs blocking seats on all of its buses and inside the DART Central Station lobby to allow for more flexibility in social distancing.
DART has installed two new bus shelters along University Avenue that feature artwork commissioned by Drake University. The artwork by artists and Iowa natives Mollie Wallace and Dana Harrison features campus and neighborhood inspired designs made possible by the University through the generosity of Wells Fargo.
Starting on May 3, 2021, the MyDART app will implement stronger privacy and security measures by requiring customers to enter their CVV code when purchasing mobile passes using a debit/credit card payment option.
DART will donate multiple retired RideShare vans to nonprofit organizations, community groups or government agencies within DART’s service area this fall. Applications are due April 12.
Riders can now pay cash for mobile passes in the MyDART app. You can pay cash at DART Central Station’s customer service counter or through a network of retailers.
