DART Invites Residents to View Silver Line Betterment Wall Mock-ups

Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) invites residents to view the betterments/sound wall mock-ups now available across the Silver Line alignment. The mock-up walls are available beginning Friday, November 20, 2020 through Friday, January 29, 2021. (Note: the viewing period was extended to Sunday, February 28, 2021.)

The 26-mile Silver Line Regional Rail Project is currently under construction between DFW Airport, Grapevine, Coppell, Dallas, Carrollton, Addison, Richardson and Plano.

The betterments/sound wall color and finish for each neighborhood were voted on by residents and stakeholders through a robust and inclusive community engagement process. All locations will provide the community an up-close look at the various wall color and finish selections. Attendees will see the Durisol Absorptive Wall System that will be used on the track-side of the alignment and the Precast Concrete Reflective Wall to be used on the neighborhood-side of the alignment.
