Trinity Railway Express morning commuters may have to adjust their schedules if proposed large-scale systemwide service reductions are approved next month.
The Dallas Area Rapid Transit board will consider those service and fair changes at its Aug. 26 meeting. DART jointly owns the popular TRE rail service with Fort Worth’s Trinity Metro transit agency.
“The proposed changes are being initiated by DART,” Trinity Metro spokesperson Laura Hanna said. “TRE is jointly owned and operated by Trinity Metro and DART, so any adjustments would need to be approved by their board, and then would need to be presented to our board for approval.”
Under a proposal for 2026, the commuter train between downtown Fort Worth and downtown Dallas would eliminate its schedule every 30 minutes on weekday mornings and move to an hourly schedule. DART held several public input meetings in Dallas County during June.
