DART restoring service to routes temporarily reduced due to staffing shortage

DART will restore service to Local Route 52 and six of its Express Routes beginning Monday, Feb. 28, 2022. Select trips on these routes were removed last month as DART adjusted its service levels to match its available workforce due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now that COVID cases are rapidly declining among Central Iowans and DART’s employees, DART can restore service back to its regular levels.

Trips will be added back to the following routes with the restored trip times reflected in the tables below.

  • Local Route 52
  • Express Routes 92, 93, 95, 96, 98 and 99

These trips will be restored effective 2/28/22
