Media Relations Contact: June 16, 2010 North Texas Transportation Agencies Pool Resources to Cut Traffic and Pollution DART, DCTA and The T Partner For Promotion Stressing the need to develop regional solutions to the challenge of air quality, Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART), the Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA) and the Fort Worth Transportation Authority (The T) are joining forces through the May to September ozone season to promote the Employer Transit Benefits programs. In addition to the core tool of increased transit use, other approaches include van and carpools. The agencies are funding the joint promotion by pooling grants awarded by the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG). Each grant has been allocated for the promotion of Employer Transit Benefits programs. Since most transit trips are made to and from work, focusing on the workplace makes it easier for the agencies to educate commuters on the numerous commuting alternatives the North Texas transit agencies provide and how they can save money, alleviate commuting stress and contribute to cleaner air. -- 30 -- |
