[DSM-Iowa] Fwd: DART Releases Public Input Report

Mon Feb 5 00:06:02 UTC 2024

Hi All,
DART released the results of its survey from the fall. It looks like the next decision is up to the city of Des Moines. While not all the info provided is accessible, the key findings are. I was glad to see a comment from a blind person made it into the report.

DART Releases Public Input Report

Good morning,

Thank you for being involved in DART’s public input process that took place in November and December. A report summarizing key findings is now available on our website <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001-Up8Dio2VqT2Obc9b89Ma9QsjIEIjbwu-OXiVqAh1p6Hc6GvsHulStYdP7lbkN1h6fageUh8WNoZ40LPYf583jfHrHwTEjf0FCbRz1bA9ttLKpkdRM_SEsimxia26sCGzINmmFZfMT56eiaikWm7TWkQthul72vMTymH9Zz5vpkC-QMgQXPJiv_QpsdAJSfH&c=pGts6wWbgsFJIduaN3IhU3d8yZpplky3gg08vy2K6PQKenePWjBxWg==&ch=avJDP8evfx_iFK6uzeKTWwbf78qORLPyH8hWg86ju0i_aBNAWj0EUQ==>.

This process has been challenging, but important. DART has shared this report with elected leaders. The DART Commission has presented a compromise solution <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001-Up8Dio2VqT2Obc9b89Ma9QsjIEIjbwu-OXiVqAh1p6Hc6GvsHulStYdP7lbkN1h67BYSsOccIvvQAhWm3k0pD30tZo880XJogUQyemZ85P1PwNlh58iuuOdAPFYXmcXvwoHFWeHk4oIW_FbGOvofFjhCF0JJJ0ean6l7kp878WZlM7Fsg-lTKU8J1bbxtZDT7dZN_1aCDtxVwlKeCxz-VUXTrdrD5bSkpOzak1BoL_wdrA8Gqiepk9GG6tDO2PvsLG3h-pGxF7ZwROtyGQsB_WkklVqQCvlhg5sitj9vghF-vdsXohQzGijeCXpkevb&c=pGts6wWbgsFJIduaN3IhU3d8yZpplky3gg08vy2K6PQKenePWjBxWg==&ch=avJDP8evfx_iFK6uzeKTWwbf78qORLPyH8hWg86ju0i_aBNAWj0EUQ==> for the Des Moines City Council to consider that would avoid drastic service cuts and provide stability for a few years while we work together as a region to reimagine our public transit system.

DART expects to hold public input in mid-spring to share specific service cuts that would begin in November 2024, including specific route and schedule changes, and to get feedback on the proposed changes.  

We will keep you informed as key decisions are made. Our goal is to provide the best service possible with the funding we receive, knowing many of you rely on DART as a part of your daily lives. 

Every day, we remain committed to our mission of enriching lives, connecting communities and expanding opportunities.  

Thank you.
