DART Schedule question?

Posted by TXWayne@reddit | askdfw | View on Reddit | 3 comments

Planning a trip from Parker Road station to Fair Park for a concert tonight. Using the DART trip planner it takes me to Ankard station instead of Pearl/Arts District, why as the green shows there also? Can you not get off at Pearl to catch the green line to Fair Park?

From DART website: Additional weekend work will impact the service as northbound track work between Pearl/Arts District and SMU/Mockingbird stations will occur from 10:00 p.m. Friday, April 24, through 3:00 a.m. Monday, April 27, and southbound track between SMU/Mockingbird and Pearl/Arts District station will take place from 10:00 p.m. Friday, May 8, through 3:00 a.m. Sunday, May 10. Passengers can expect delays during these periods as Red and Blue Line trains will operate on a single track. Even though you'll be traveling south, this DART alert might be the reason your planning info states you go to Akard.

Thanks for the reply, I put a bit more effort into it and it seems to be a weekend thing. I pushed the trip planner out to avoid the construction into several May dates and during the week it will show Pearl to connect but on any Saturday it takes you to Ankard.

Yes. You can transfer at Pearl.
