Dallas Area Rapid Transit to cap daily fares
Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) on Aug. 18 will implement a new fare structure that officials say will help save money for riders.
Under DART's new fare capping policy, riders will not have to spend more than the total cost of a day pass in a single day, or the total cost of a monthly pass in a calendar month. Day passes are $6, while monthly passes are $96.
The cap on daily fares begins Aug. 18, while the monthly fare cap will go into effect Sept. 1.
Also, DART will begin offering a midday pass for riders on weekends. Additionally, reduced fare passes for high school students will be valid on weekends.
