DART Light Rail Scheduled to Land at DFW Airport in 2013
Travel to and from Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport will soon involve trains as well as planes. The Dallas Area Rapid Transit board put plans in motion to connect the Orange Line to DFW by 2013.
“The 14-mi Orange Line is a key component of a regional rail expansion that will lead to the doubling of DART’s rail network to more than 90 miles by 2013,” Morgan Lyons, DART spokesman, told Texas Construction. “The Orange Line will run parallel with the Green Line through downtown Dallas to Bachman Station in Northwest Dallas. From Bachman Station, the Orange Line heads northwest to the Las Colinas Urban Center, in 2011, and DFW Airport in 2013.”
