Bike to Work Day

Friday, May 16, 2025

DART makes it easy for you to positively impact your health and the environment by combining a DART ride with your bike ride! DART has always welcomed bikes, and we provide a seamless, convenient experience for cyclists. Commuting by bike and DART is a cost-effective, earth-friendly alternative to the single-occupancy vehicle. Join us at one of our Bike to Work Day events. 

 

You could even win a free bike!

Bike Education


Bicycles are welcome on all DART buses and trains. Bringing your bike on board or parking it at one of our transit facilities is simple. Here are some educational pointers.

Racks

DART buses have bike racks on the front of each bus. They’re easy to use, and they make combining cycling and DART a snap. 

Rail

The center section of each light rail vehicle offers platform-level boarding – perfect for bicycles – plus additional floor space. Just roll right on board and continue your journey.

Lids

DART has environmentally friendly bike lids available at some facilities. These bike lids are vandal-resistant, and do not overheat or melt plastic bike components.

Use of the bike lids is on a first-come, first-served basis. You will need to provide your own padlock; lids may not be locked for more than 72 hours at a time.

Ride Right!

DART values the safety and comfort of all riders. Please exercise care when bringing bikes on board DART vehicles. A little courtesy and alertness on your part ensures a smoother ride for everyone. Thank you!

Why Bike to Work?

It’s good for your health. Biking benefits your cardiovascular health and muscle tone, and burns around 10 calories per minute.

 

It’s good for your stress levels. The average driver in Dallas lost 38 hours due to congestion in 2023. That’s a lot of time stressing! Like all forms of exercise, cycling boosts your mood, relieves anxiety, and improves mental clarity.

 

It’s good for the environment. The average U.S. car produces roughly  4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year. Bicycles produce none! DART Rail trains are zero emissions as well, and our buses run on low-emission compressed natural gas (CNG). DART recently purchased 476 CNG buses, underscoring the agency’s commitment to sustainability.

 

It’s good for your wallet. The average American commuter spends approximately  $5,750 annually on commuting, and much more in many cases. Cycling saves on costs like fuel, vehicle maintenance, insurance, and parking fees. It also reduces wear and tear, which means your vehicle lasts longer.
