Thank you for helping us to ensure the health and safety of those who ride, and work for, DART. With the extra precautions we’ve taken to ensure your safety, (such as increased cleaning and sanitization) we’ve relied on your help by limiting your travel to essential trips, practicing social distancing at stops and on DART, and wearing masks. As more businesses and organizations in central Iowa re-open, DART wants to make sure we are safely able to provide transportation to those who want to ride and those who rely on DART.

During this pandemic, transit continue to play an important role in connecting people to essential services. Thanks to some innovative community partners, DART is working to serve our community more than ever as we navigate COVID-19.
