DART has resolved an issue with the MyDART app that prevented real-time bus arrival information from displaying correctly.

Real-time tracking in the Trip Planner has also been restored. 

Arrival times shown in the MyDART app and in the Trip Planner should now reflect real-time data. 

In addition, you can access real-time arrival information in these three ways:

Text: Send your bus stop number to 515-515 using MyDART NextBus

The last day of the 2023-2024 school year for Des Moines Public Schools (DMPS) is May 29, 2024. Extensions to routes and dedicated trips added onto DART schedules to serve students, called "School Tripper" service, will no longer be offered until the next school year. Please check your route's schedule as some routes have times on their timetable indicating they only operate on school days. 

Today's public input meeting on the DART On Demand Fare Increase at DMACC in Ankeny is cancelled due to the threat of severe weather and flooding. Storms could produce high winds, hail, and possible tornadoes this afternoon.

We have rescheduled the public meeting to take place at the same time and in the same location next week:

5:30 – 6:00 p.m.

DMACC – Ankeny Campus, Building 7, Room 105

An update is now available on the Apple App Store that fixes crashes iOS users have experienced using the MyDART app.

A few weeks ago, our mobile app provider released a software patch, which then caused the MyDART app to crash for iPhone users when using the Trip Planner or Next Bus features. To fix the issue, our vendor worked on a major app update for iOS.

We apologize for the challenges this may have caused in the last few weeks.
