2-Points to White Rock East

Appendix F

Changes to Bus Routes

The following is a response for additional review by DART on the draft of the 2-Points to White Rock

East Area Plan. It is provided as a supplement to the Transportation section as it was received after the

draft was complete, but is applicable for reference.

1. Would you please explain the significant changes to Route 475?

The 2009 alignment operated between South Garland Station and Spruce High School. The

route traveled down major streets such as (Jupiter Rd, Garland Rd, Buckner Blvd, and Jim

Miller Rd). (Please see 2009 route map above)

The portion of the route along Garland Rd was replaced by Route 60 and 467 and the

portion South of Jim Miller and Lake June is operated by Route 591. Spruce High School

Portion was replaced by Routes 594 and 597.

On December 6, 2010 route 475 was modified to operate between Lake June Station (in

Pleasant Grove) to Lake Highland Station (in Northeast Dallas) the major streets used are

Jim Miller Rd, Buckner Blvd, Plano Rd and Walnut Hill Lane. (Please see 2010 route map

above)

2. Does the new Route 467 exactly replace 466, if not what is the route?

(The above map represents the 2009 alignment before 2010 changes).

On December 6, 2010 Route 466 was divided into 2 sections in order to improve the on time

performance of the route. The alignment between Buckner Station and Charlton Methodist

Hospital remained Route 466. (See above map)

The Route 466 was also modified to travel along Loop 12 between Jim Miller and Buckner

Blvd to the Buckner Station. The portion of the route that traveled down Elam was replaced

by Route 594.

The alignment between Buckner Station and South Garland Transit Center became Route

467. The portion that went to White Rock Station along Buckner Blvd between Garland Rd

and Northwest Hwy was discontinued due to low ridership on that section. (See above map)

3. Can you share the proposed changes to Route 110?

(The above map represents the 2010 alignment before 2012 changes).

On July 30, 2012 all trips on Route 110 were modified to serve over IH-30 Frwy/HOV Lane to Ferguson Road and continue its regular alignment to East Field College. This route no longer goes to Fair Park, along East Grand or to the Culver/Winslow area. Each trip on Route 111 now does that. (See above map)

4. Is there an easy map of these routes that you could send so that we can make our map show the latest?

I have attached the 2009 maps and 2010 maps for comparison for Route 466 and 475. Route 110 maps are for 2011 and 2012. The latest maps for Route 466, 467, & 475 are for 2010 and the latest map for Route 110 is 2012. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or need clarification concerning my responses. Thanks.
