Riders recommending DART

Nine out of ten Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) customers say they’ll recommend others get on board according to the results of the 2011 customer satisfaction survey.

The survey of more than 3,700 customers was conducted in September both in person and online. It has a margin of error of +/- 1.6 percent. The survey also reported an 87 percent general satisfaction compared to 89 percent in 2010, essentially unchanged given the margin of error.

Other key findings from the survey include:

• 91 percent would recommend riding DART to others
• 92 percent found the information they needed on DART.org
• 90 percent found schedules easy to read
• 77 percent believe buses are on schedule
• 92 percent report the trains are on time
