Who We Are

We are Dallas Area Rapid Transit – DART. Your preferred choice of transportation for now and in the future.

Discover more

DART is far more than just "the thing you ride." It is your "trusted guide" to discovering all that North Texas has to offer.

Our extensive network of light rail, Trinity Railway Express commuter rail, bus routes, paratransit services, and vanpools enables more than 220,000 passengers per day get to where they need to go across our 700-square-mile service area.

Explore North Texas and discover something new on DART. From off-the-beaten-path venues to the trendiest spots in town, every trip can be an adventure. Many of these “DARTable” places are a leisurely walk from a DART rail station or bus stop, and the GoPassSM app makes discovering them easy.

If your journey begins or ends in places not easily served by DART, you now can take the train or bus for the longest portion of the trip and use Uber or Lyft for the short leg. Customers can access the Uber, Lyft, and Zipcar apps through GoPass by selecting “Connect 2 Car” in the Travel Tools section.

Visit DART.org/DARTable for a list of possibilities that span arts, culture, sports, recreation, dining, shopping, and special events.

Organization

Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) is a sub-regional transportation authority, created by a voting majority of the citizens on August 13, 1983, to organize and provide public transportation and complementary services to jurisdictions pursuant to Chapter 452 of the Texas Transportation Code (the “Act”). Our service area is comprised of 13 North Texas municipalities (Addison, Carrollton, Cockrell Hill, Dallas, Farmers Branch, Garland, Glenn Heights, Highland Park, Irving, Plano, Richardson, Rowlett, and University Park) as shown in Exhibit 2 (on page 6). Our headquarters is located in downtown Dallas. Under the Act, we are authorized to collect a 1% sale and use tax on certain transactions.

DART provides bus, light rail, commuter rail, paratransit, vanpool, and other services to our 13 municipalities across a 700-square mile service area with a population of 2.4 million in the Dallas, Texas area. DART has operated bus service since its inception in 1983. The first segment of light rail opened in 1996, and the 20-mile Light Rail Starter System was completed in May 1997.

Page 1 Second Quarter FY 2018

Since then, DART has worked to expand light rail considerably. DART currently operates a total of 93 miles of light rail, including an extension to UNT-Dallas that opened October 24, 2016. DART operates commuter rail service, which also opened in 1996, jointly with Trinity Metro (formerly known as Fort Worth Transportation Authority) along a 34-mile rail corridor between the cities of Dallas and Fort Worth. Exhibit 6 on page 14 is the DART System Map.

Mission Statement – DART’s mission statement defines the purpose for which the Agency was created:

The mission of Dallas Area Rapid Transit is to build, establish, and operate a safe, efficient, and effective transportation system that, within the DART Service Area, provides mobility, improves the quality of life, and stimulates economic development through the implementation of the DART Service Plan as adopted by the voters on August 13, 1983, and as amended from time to time.

Vision Statement – To help achieve the Board's mission and strategic priorities, the Board has approved a vision statement to address DART’s customers and stakeholders.

DART: Your preferred choice of transportation for now and in the future.

Board Strategic Priorities – To achieve this mission and ensure Agency alignment, in April 2015 the Board adopted the following six Strategic Priorities:

1. Continually improve service and safety experiences and perceptions for customers and the public 2. Optimize and preserve (state of good repair) the existing transit system 3. Optimize DART’s influence in regional transportation planning 4. Expand DART’s transportation system to serve cities inside and outside the current service area 5. Pursue excellence through employee engagement, development, and well-being 6. Innovate to improve levels of service, business processes, and funding

Page 2 Second Quarter FY 2018

DART Organizational Values – DART’s Five-Year Strategic Plan is grounded in DART’s Values Statement, as follows:

. Focused on Our Customers  We are dedicated to meeting our customers’ needs.  We strive for continuous improvement.  We deliver quality.

. Committed to Safety and Security  We require safety and security to be the responsibility of every employee.  We are committed to ensuring the safety and security of our passengers and employees.

Governance and Management Structure

The Board of Directors

DART is governed by a 15-member Board of Directors. The governing bodies of the participating municipalities appoint members to our Board according to the ratio of the population of each participating municipality to the total population within our service area. A participating municipality having a population which entitles it to make a fraction of an appointment may combine that fraction with one or more other participating municipalities to make one appointment; but no participating municipality may appoint more than 65% of the members of the Board. The Board can be restructured whenever there is a change in the participating municipalities or every fifth year after the date census data or population estimates become available.

Page 3 Second Quarter FY 2018

Each Board member serves at the pleasure of the governing municipal unit(s) that appoints the member. Board members serve staggered two-year terms. Eight of the member terms begin July 1 of odd-numbered years, and seven of the member terms begin on July 1 of even-numbered years. Each member is entitled to receive $50 for each Board meeting attended and is reimbursed for necessary and reasonable expenses incurred in the discharge of the member’s duties. Exhibit 1 sets forth information regarding our current Board of Directors.

Operating and Financial Performance

The Quarterly Operating and Financial Performance report provides the reader with DART’s progress in meeting the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and goals as outlined in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 annual budget. This report is for the second quarter of FY 2018 ending March 31, 2018.

KPI Summary • Ridership: Both Total Agency and Fixed Route Ridership have slightly lower performance in comparison to the previous quarter. • Subsidy Per Passenger: With revenues and expenses below target, resulting in lower Net Subsidy spread over fewer passengers, both Total Agency and Fixed Route Subsidy Per Passenger are slightly above (worse than) target. • Fixed Route On-Time Performance: Slight improvement from the previous quarter. • Fixed Route Complaints Per 100,000 Passengers: Complaints have increased from the previous quarter, but are still less (better) than the stated goal. • Fixed Route Accidents Per 100,000 Miles: This KPI has improved, remaining below the stated goal.

General Information DART’s fiscal year begins on October 1. The Quarterly Report includes actual values for fiscal years 2015 through 2017 and a comparison of the FY 2018 target to quarter results for FY 2018.

Management continually strives to improve the reporting of KPIs. Accordingly, prior period KPIs are shown as previously reported and may not reflect the most current methodology. Therefore, there may be significant fluctuations from year to year which will be explained in the relevant sections. Furthermore, data displayed in the charts, at single or double decimal precision, represents whole number values; therefore, variances discussed in the text may or may not be recalculable based on chart presentations due to rounding.

This report includes DART's KPIs in scorecard format with a Green, Yellow, or Red status for each measurement:

Green – Based on the four-quarter rolling average and current performance trends, it is probable that the FY 2018 target will be met or exceeded.

Yellow – Based on the four-quarter rolling average and the performance trends, performance is below target, but it is possible that the FY 2018 target

will be met.

Red – Based on the four-quarter rolling average and current performance trends, performance is below the FY 2018 target, and it is probable the target will not be met.

Total System Subsidy Per Passenger for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 is $6.70, $0.19 (2.9%) above (worse than) the target of $6.51. Although Expenses were below target by $21.2 million (4.6%), which drove Net Subsidy below target by $12.5 Million (2.85%); the greater decline in Ridership, below target by 3.7 million (5.55%), resulted in Subsidy Per Passenger being $0.19 (2.9%) above (worse than) target.

Exhibit 4 details the calculation of Total System Subsidy Per Passenger.

Exhibit 4 Total System Subsidy Per Passenger Calculation Modally Allocated 1 2 Subsidy Expenses - Revenues = Net Subsidy / Ridership = Per Trinity Trinity Passenger DART Metro Total DART Metro Total Actual $501,477,538 $2,514,847 $503,992,385 $73,251,380 $2,812,860 $76,064,240 $427,928,145 63,895,819 $6.70 Budget $522,691,572 $2,500,807 $525,192,379 $82,520,663 $2,197,125 $84,717,788 $440,474,591 67,648,102 $6.51 Variance ($21,214,034) $14,040 ($21,199,994) ($9,269,283) $615,735 ($8,653,548) ($12,546,446) (3,752,283) $0.19 % to Target 95.94% 100.56% 95.96% 88.77% 128.02% 89.79% 97.15% 94.45% 102.90% [1] Expenses (Budget and Actuals) as reported in the Quarterly Report will not match the financial statements due to the use of Operating Expenses only and the inclusion of Expenses from Trinity Metro to present a comprehensive Subsidy Per Passenger figure. [2] Revenues (Budget and Actuals) as reported in the Quarterly Report will not match the financial statements due to use of Operating Revenues only and the inclusion of Revenues from Trinity Metro to present a comprehensive Subsidy Per Passenger figure.

Page 4 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Under the current budget model, each $1 million fluctuation in Net Subsidy will result in a $0.0148 fluctuation in Total System Subsidy Per Passenger. Likewise, each 100,000 passenger fluctuation in ridership will result in a $0.0096 fluctuation in Total System Subsidy Per Passenger.

Fixed-Route Subsidy Per Passenger for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 is $6.30, $0.18 (3.01%) above (worse than) the target of $6.12. The primary factor contributing to the decrease of Total System Subsidy Per Passenger is Ridership.

For the four-quarter period ending March 31, 2018 Expenses were below target by $17.8 million (3.68%), coupled with Revenues below target by $7.5 million (9.38%), left Net Subsidy below target by $10.3 million (2.5%). Fixed-Route ridership was below target by 3.5 million passengers (5.37%), greater than the decline in Net Subsidy, which resulted in higher Subsidy Per Passenger.

Page 5 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Modal Update Bus (48.8% of total system ridership in Fiscal Year 2017)

Our bus system provides local, express, crosstown, on-call, flex, feeder bus routes, and site-specific shuttles. Local routes are focused on the Dallas Central Business District and serve the largest and densest concentration of employment in the service area. The routes are characterized by stops at one- or two-block intervals. Service is generally provided six to seven days a week. Express service connects the Dallas Central Business District to regionally located park-and-ride facilities that serve as focal points for commuters to make high speed trips. Crosstown routes traverse the service area facilitating intra- and inter-community travel while linking a variety of activity centers. DART On-Call provides our customers personalized demand-responsive weekday neighborhood service within specifically defined areas. Flex Service, a variation of the On-Call approach, provides customers the advantages of a conventional fixed route plus the convenience of curbside service in eight Flex Service Areas. Feeder routes connect residential and employment centers to the light rail system and other bus routes at stations and Transit Centers accommodating transfer connections that expand travel opportunities. Site-specific shuttles are operated and funded with partner organizations that offer direct connections for their employees, students, or customers to the DART Rail network.

Page 6 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Bus Ridership was 31.2 million for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018, 0.9 million lower than FY 2017 actual and 1.9 million below the target of 33.0 million.

Bus system ridership continues to trend below targeted levels. Bus System ridership totaled 7.3 million riders, 8.2 percent below the second quarter of FY 2017. Additional ridership development initiatives on select routes were inaugurated in late March 2018. Several factors have combined to cause lower reported ridership. Aging fareboxes, upon which we rely for counting passengers, continue to fail at a regular rate causing many trips to be operated without the ability to count riders. Undercounting ridership is a significant contributor to the magnitude of ridership decrease. The expansion of the number of automatic passenger counters and replacement of aging fareboxes will resolve the undercounting issue and reflect higher ridership. Service improvement initiatives directed toward ridership development are continuing to produce positive results as are efforts to improve on-time performance. Peer agencies in Texas continue to report declining ridership, indicating factors in the overall economy and competition from other modes as contributing factors to the ridership shortfall.

Mean Distance Between Service Calls was 10,720 miles for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 – 1,499 miles below (worse than) the target of 12,220 miles.

Reliability improvement efforts continue to be successful for Bus, with the primary focus being on those vehicle systems contributing the most to customer service disruptions. The ARBOC buses are operating at 67% of goal. DART Engineering continues to work with vehicle and component manufacturers to improve vehicle reliability.

Subsidy Per Passenger for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 is $7.19, $0.07 (0.95%) above (worse than) the target of $7.12.

The primary factor contributing to the increase of Bus Subsidy Per Passenger is ridership. Bus ridership was below target by $1.8 million (5.6%). With expenses and revenues up, net subsidy was driven down by $11.1 million (4.72%); the decrease in net subsidy was outweighed by the greater decrease in ridership.

Page 7 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Modal Update Light Rail Transit (LRT) (45.8% of total system ridership in Fiscal Year 2017)

Light Rail Transit is an electrically-powered rail system that generally operates at street level. A 20-mile “Starter System” opened in phases from September 1996 through May 1997, with lines from South and West Oak Cliff through downtown Dallas, and along the North Central Expressway corridor to Park Lane in Dallas. In 2001-2002, DART’s light rail was extended to , Garland, Richardson, and Plano. In 2009, the first phase of the Green Line opened southeast of downtown Dallas with the remainder opening in 2010. DART also opened its first infill station, Lake Highlands Station, in December 2010 on the Blue Line. The first 5-mile segment of the Orange Line to Irving opened for service in July 2012. The second phase of the Orange Line and the Blue Line extension to Rowlett opened for service in December 2012. Rail service opened to the DFW International Airport in August 2014. The extension of the Blue Line to UNT-Dallas opened in October 2016. We currently operate a 93-mile light rail system. Exhibit 8 is DART’s LRT Scorecard for Key Performance Indicators.

[2] This KPI was previously reported as Car Miles and was revised based on DART's Safety Committee decision to report Accidents Per Train Miles.

Page 8 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 LRT Ridership for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 was 29.2 million, 0.9 million lower than FY 2017 actual and 1.6 million below the target of 30.9 million.

Light Rail ridership has not been as high as expected during the year. Light rail ridership was 6.7 million riders in the second quarter of FY 2018, a decrease of 8.7 percent from the second quarter of FY 2017. Service quality issues, including service interruptions and on-time performance issues have contributed to the decrease. Specific efforts have been launched to correct those issues and on-time performance is improving. It is expected that the improved service quality will result in improving ridership levels.

On-Time Performance was 92.2% for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018, 0.09% above (better than) the previous four-quarter period, ending December 2017; however, it was 1.79% below (worse than) target of 94.0%.

Rail Operations will continue to work on the following targeted strategies to improve Light Rail On-Time Performance (OTP):

• Rail Field Supervisors will prioritize and increase efficiency testing associated with On-Time departures; • Rail Operations has a new initiative of identifying hot spots on a weekly basis where trains are shown to be off the schedule time per the Vehicle Business System (VBS). The Field Supervisor will monitor to ensure schedule compliance. Rail Operators will be counseled and receive corrective action, if warranted; • Regarding Light Rail, software modifications have been implemented for the VBS equipment in the cab that provide the Rail Operator with feedback on schedule adherence, which should make this a more effective tool for operators in gauging their station departure times; and • Monitoring process at end-of-line/junction approach stations utilizing camera and vehicle location technology to assure on-time departures will be reinstituted.

For FY 2018 Rail Operations has instituted a new initiative where top performers are recognized monthly. Hand in hand with this initiative is an increase in monitoring those who fall below OTP targets to address and mitigate issues which may contribute to a degradation in service. The current Rail OTP goal is 94 percent and is being further reinforced with a new “Strive to 95” campaign.

Complaints Per 100,000 Passengers was 17.6 for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018, 1.0 above (worse than) the previous four-quarter period ending December 2017; and 0.1 above (worse than) target of 17.5.

Rail Operations conducts weekly performance meetings where customer complaints are reviewed. The division manager reviews the video from the station platform to verify information pertaining to the complaint. In most cases we can confirm that the complaint is not valid, and a response is given back to Customer Service. When the complaint is valid, the Operator is counseled and monitored for future compliance.

Page 9 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018

Mean Distance Between Service Calls was 18,882 miles for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018, 7,618 miles below (worse than) the target of 26,500 miles.

Reliability improvement efforts continue for LRT with primary focus being on those vehicle systems contributing the most to customer service disruptions. The major contributors to the substantial underrun in this metric are door and propulsion systems. In FY 2018, DART has completed the Toyo Propulsion retrofit on one fleet of vehicles, replacing the obsolete propulsion system on 21 of our oldest light rail vehicles. DART Rail Maintenance and Engineering are collaborating with our Original Equipment Manufacturer vendor on root cause and possible solutions to door gap issues as well as air compressor failures. DART continues to work on improving the overall performance of the LRV fleet to achieve this goal by year end.

Accidents Per 100,000 Miles was 0.57 for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018, 0.22 above (worse than) target of 0.35.

Accidents are reviewed for trends and actions that can be identified for operational improvement. Any Rail employee who receives a preventable accident receives additional retraining and corrective action, in reference to the accident.

Subsidy Per Passenger for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 is $5.03, $0.11 (2.3%) above (worse than) the target of $4.91.

The primary factor contributing to the increase of Light Rail Subsidy Per Passenger is ridership. Light Rail ridership is below target by 1.6 million (5.28%). With expenses down by $6.4 million (3.53%) and revenues down by $1.7 million (5.6%), net subsidy was driven down by $4.7 million (3.1%)%); the decrease in net subsidy was outweighed by the greater decrease in ridership.

Page 10 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Modal Update Commuter Rail (3.2% of total system ridership in Fiscal Year 2017)

Our commuter rail system, referred to as Trinity Railway Express (the “TRE”), provides diesel powered passenger railroad services on the TRE Corridor between Dallas and Fort Worth, in mixed traffic with freight railroad operations. The 34-mile corridor is jointly owned by DART and the Fort Worth Transportation Authority, which recently rebranded itself as Trinity Metro. TRE service is provided pursuant to an interlocal agreement between DART and Trinity Metro. This agreement was originally entered into in 1994 and was restated and adopted by both Boards in 2003. Pursuant to Trackage Rights Agreements, the Burlington Northern Santa Fe, the Dallas Garland and Northeastern, and the Union Pacific railroads pay a fee for the right to operate freight services on the TRE corridor. TRE, through its contractor, Herzog Transit Services, Inc., provides dispatching, maintains the corridor, operates the service, and maintains the rolling stock used in the service.

Commuter Rail Ridership for the second-quarter period ended March 2018 was 511,436, a decrease of 5.2 percent from last year. The service improvements inaugurated in October 2016 and the modest gains experienced in ridership on weekdays and substantial ridership increases on Saturdays during the first quarter, when compared to the previous year’s first quarter, are showing a downward trend in the second quarter. While these improvements will require a total of about 24 months to completely realize their full ridership benefits, overall the ridership during the second quarter has decreased when compared to the previous year.

Subsidy Per Passenger for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 is $10.86, $2.88 (36.18%) above (worse than) the target of $7.97.

The primary factor contributing to the increase of TRE Subsidy Per Passenger is revenues. TRE revenues were below target by $7.6 million (48.90%). With both expenses and revenues down, net subsidy was driven up. The combination of increased net subsidy and lower ridership, 58,252 (2.73%), resulted in a higher subsidy per passenger.

Page 12 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Modal Update Paratransit Paratransit (1.2% of total system ridership in Fiscal Year 2017)

DART is responsible for providing complementary paratransit service in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (the “ADA”). In Fiscal Year 2013, we transitioned to a new service delivery model and a new contractor, MV Transportation, Inc. (MV), for providing paratransit service. MV provides, operates, and maintains a fleet of 80 Starcraft vehicles in dedicated service. MV also oversees and manages a fleet of 116 Dodge Entervans outfitted by Braun, which are taxi vehicles provided and operated by Irving Holdings.

Mobility Management Services continues to work at improving the service received by our customers while striving to provide the most cost-efficient service for the agency and to be good stewards of public funds. The department is focused on providing the highest freedom of mobility to each one of our customers. The department offers several options for customers to learn what options are available to them and to assist them in learning to use each of these options. The Travel Ambassador Program offers free training to any DART customer, regardless of mobility status, in order to promote additional fixed-route ridership in the system. In the second quarter of FY 2018, the Travel Ambassadors provided training to 603 individuals.

The department’s current contract for Paratransit service will expire at the end of September 2019. As this date approaches, Mobility Management Services is preparing to issue a Request for Proposals in the fourth quarter of FY 2018 and will be searching for new and innovative ideas to connect our customers to their destinations more quickly and efficiently, through the use of new technology. A pilot program with a Transportation Network Company (TNC) (e.g., Uber, Lyft, etc.) began in mid-2017 and is providing valuable information and feedback that will be used as part of the forthcoming contract. During the second quarter of FY 2018, 12,266 trips were provided as part of the Lyft pilot.

[1] This KPI will not match the KPI as reported by Paratransit as the Quarterly Report utilizes all Complaints as reported to Customer Service and Paratransit utilizes a subset specific to the MV Contract for contract performance reporting.

Paratransit Ridership for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 was 769,858, 25,858 lower than FY 2017 actual and 93,527 below target.

While long-term trends indicate ridership on Paratransit is increasing as the overall population ages, so far in FY 2018 ridership has fallen versus the previous year. Paratransit ridership decreased to 187,792 passenger trips in the second quarter of FY 2018, a drop of 0.2 percent from the FY 2017 levels. Paratransit ridership includes trips made by clients using Lyft service. Mobility Management Services has not been able to definitively determine the reasons behind this drop. Ridership figures are higher than Actual Trip counts due to including the count of Personal Care Attendants (PCAs), guests, and children. Paratransit-certified customers are given the ability to ride fixed route services for free in order to encourage transitioning some trips to fixed route when the customer is able to do so versus a trip on Paratransit vehicles.

On-Time Performance was 89.1% for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018, 5.87% below (worse than) the target of 95.0%.

On-Time Performance has improved since the start of the contract with MV Transportation. Improvement to this area still needs to be made, and all facets of trip delivery are being checked to improve efficiencies where possible. On-Time Performance with the current contract has been better than prior Paratransit contracts.

Complaints per 1,000 Trips was 3.8 for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018, 0.8 above (worse than) the target of 3.0.

This KPI will not match Paratransit’s reporting as this report utilizes all complaints, and Paratransit utilizes a subset specific to the MV Contract for contract performance reporting. Complaints have trended downward since the current contract startup and Mobility Management Services is committed to continually improving service levels to maximize customer satisfaction.

Page 14 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Subsidy Per Passenger for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 is $43.81, $1.27 (2.98%) above (worse than) the target of $42.54.

The primary factor contributing to the increase of Paratransit Subsidy Per Passenger is ridership. With both expenses, $3.2 million (8.35%), and revenues, $0.27 million (10.89%), below budget net subsidy was down, $3.0 million (8.18%). Although net subsidy was below target, the decline in ridership, 93,527 (10.83%), was greater, resulting in higher subsidy per passenger.

Vanpool Ridership for the four-quarter period ended March 2018 was 627,746, 46,832 lower than FY 2017 actual and 92,604 below target.

Fuel prices continue to remain below $3.00. Historically, this has been a deciding driver to motivate long distance commuters to join vanpools. Workforce Solutions has been notified that their Job Access Reverse Commute (JARC) Grant is now funded. This will enable DART to offer vanpools in the southern sector at a subsidized rate of 50%. DART will take advantage of an FTA “Buy America” waiver that allows DART to expand the type of van models. The Toyota Sienna is on the waiver list and will allow DART to offer this model to the Toyota facility in Plano.

Page 16 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Subsidy Per Passenger for the four-quarter period ended March 31, 2018 is $0.94, $1.15 (548.83%) above (worse than) the target of ($0.21).

Revenues and expenses contributed to the increase in Vanpool Subsidy Per Passenger. Although expenses were below target by $136,833 (6.65%), revenues were down $881,320 (39.89%). The slight decline in expenses and substantial decline in revenues led to an increase in net subsidy of $744,486 (491.13%). Higher net subsidy coupled with the decline in ridership, 92,604 (12.86%) below target, resulted in a higher subsidy per passenger.

Exhibit 15 details the calculation of Vanpool Subsidy Per Passenger.

Accidents per 100,000 Miles – Measures vehicle accidents reported (Bus, Light Rail, TRE and Paratransit) per 100,000 miles of actual fixed route mileage. Management's objective is to reduce this ratio. Calculation = [(Vehicle Accidents / Actual Mileage) * 100,000] Accounting Basis – DART uses the accounting principles and methods appropriate for a government enterprise fund. Financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting under which revenues and expenses are recognized when earned or incurred. Accrual Method of Accounting – An accounting method that measures the performance and position of a company by recognizing economic events in the period they occur regardless of when cash transactions occur (i.e. recognize revenue in the period in which it is earned rather than when the cash is received).

MAP-21 programs were authorized with the expiration date of September 30, 2014; however, prior to the expiration date, Congress extended the deadline of MAP-21 to October 29, 2015. The FAST Act has replaced MAP-21. New Starts Program – A federal program which provides funding for fixed guideway transit projects which utilize and occupy a separate right-of-way or other high occupancy vehicle. Obligations – Funds that have been obligated/committed to a specific purpose, but have not yet been expended. On-Time Performance – Quality ratio that measures how often a service is on time (i.e., at a designated pick-up spot within a predetermined timeframe). The timeframe differs based on mode and frequency of service. Bus Operations currently uses 59 seconds early and 4 minutes and 59 seconds late. Light rail uses 1 minute early and 4 minutes late. Commuter rail uses 5 minutes late as required by FRA. Paratransit uses 20 minutes early and late. Management's objective is to increase this ratio. Calculation = [(# Scheduled Trips Sampled - # of Times Early or Late) / Total # of Scheduled Trips Sampled]

Page 27 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Glossary of Terms/Definitions (cont’d)

Operating Budget – The planning of revenue and expenditures for a given period of time to maintain daily operations. Off-Peak – Non-rush hour time periods.

Passenger Canceled Trips Ratio – Measures the percentage of times that Paratransit users schedule a trip, then cancel the trip. Total scheduled trips include actual trips made, cancellations, and no-shows. Calculation = [# of Canceled Trips / Total # of Scheduled Trips] Passenger Mile – A single passenger traveling one mile. Passenger No-Show Ratio – Quality measurement for Paratransit service that measures the number of times a Paratransit user makes a reservation and does not show-up for the ride. This measurement is different from a cancellation. Management's objective is to reduce this number so that other trips can be scheduled in that timeframe. Users can lose the ability to access the Paratransit system if they have an excessive number of no-shows. Calculation = [# of No Shows / Total # of Scheduled Trips] Passengers per Hour – Actual – The total number of Paratransit passengers actually carried, divided by the total hours of revenue service. Management's objective is to increase this number. Calculation = [Actual Passenger Boardings / Revenue Hours] Passengers per Hour - Scheduled – The total number of Paratransit passengers scheduled per hour of revenue service. Management's objective is to increase this number. Calculation = [Scheduled Passenger Boardings / Revenue Hours] Passengers per Mile – Effectiveness ratio that measures route productivity by comparing the number of passenger boardings to the number of revenue miles. Management's objective is to increase this ratio. Calculation = [Passenger Boardings / Revenue Miles] Peak Period – Morning or evening rush hour.

Reduced Fares – Discounted fares for children elementary through middle school, seniors and non-Paratransit disabled with valid ID; high school fares are applicable on bus and rail on Monday through Friday only; college/trade school valid on bus and rail with a DART Student ID. Repurchase Agreement – A money-market transaction in which one party sells securities to another while agreeing to repurchase those securities at a later date. Reserves – DART uses “reserves” as well as “funds” to ensure resources are available for anticipated and unanticipated needs.

Revenue Bond – A bond on which debt service is payable solely from a restricted revenue source (or sources)—for example sales tax revenues. Revenue Car Miles – Total miles operated by LRT or TRE trains in revenue service multiplied by the number of cars operated as part of each train. Power consumption and maintenance requirements are driven by the number of car miles operated. As a result, one area of management focus is to optimize the number of cars operated per train based on ridership and Board-adopted loading standards. Calculation = Sum for all trips of [# of Revenue Train Miles operated * # of cars in the train] Revenue Miles or Hours – Measures the number of miles, or hours, that a vehicle is in revenue service (i.e., available to pick up passengers) and includes special events service. This measure does not include "deadhead miles" which are the miles between the bus maintenance facility and the beginning and/or end of a route. Reverse Commute – City-to-suburb commute. This phrase refers to the fact that most riders commute from the suburbs to the city. Ridership – For the total system, this is the total number of passengers boarding a DART vehicle. Transfers are included in total ridership and passenger boarding counts (e.g., if a person transfers from one bus to another bus or from a bus to rail, this is counted as two passenger boardings). Fixed route ridership counts passenger boardings (including transfers) for bus, light rail, streetcar, and commuter rail only. See also Unlinked Trip. Sales Taxes for Operating Expenses – Measures the amount of sales taxes required to subsidize operations. 100% minus this percentage is the amount of sales taxes available for capital and road improvement programs. Management's objective is to reduce this ratio. Calculation = [(Operating Expenses - Operating Revenues - Interest Income) / Sales Tax Revenues] Scheduled Miles Per Hour – Represents the average overall speed of the modal service as reflected in the schedule, with stops and recovery time included. This value reflects both the composition of the service (i.e., express and local routes for bus mode) and the efficiency of the schedule (e.g., reducing recovery time in the schedule improves average speed). Calculation (for bus) = [Scheduled Miles / Scheduled Hours] Calculation (for rail) = [Scheduled Train Miles / Scheduled Train Hours] Service Hours – Paratransit service hours are also known as revenue hours. They are calculated from the time of the first passenger pick-up until the time of the last passenger drop-off. Travel time to and from the garage is not included. Service Levels – Also known as Telephone Service Factor (TSF), measures the response to calls within a specified period. This measurement is being used to monitor the effectiveness of the main call center (CI: 214-979-1111) within 1 minute, the response to Paratransit scheduling issues within 1 minute, and the response to Where's My Ride inquiries within 2 minutes. Calculation = (# of Calls Answered Within the Specified Time Period) / (# of Calls Received Within the Specified Time Period) Start-Up Costs – Costs associated with the implementation of a major new light rail, commuter rail, streetcar, or service expansion that are incurred prior to the service implementation (e.g., vehicle and system testing). State of Good Repair (SGR) – Capital investment in infrastructure maintenance in order to improve the condition of current transit facilities and provide safe, reliability service. Subscription Service – Paratransit passengers traveling at least three times per week to the same location at the same time can be placed on "subscription service." This service is "automatically" scheduled for the passenger, and it is not necessary for the passenger to call and schedule the service. Calculation = [(Operating Expenses - Operating Revenues) / Passenger Boardings]

Page 29 Second Quarter O&F FY 2018 Glossary of Terms/Definitions (cont’d)

Total Vehicle Miles – The sum of all miles operated by passenger vehicles, including mileage when no passengers are carried. Transit Asset Management (TAM) – Measurement of the condition of capital assets such as equipment, rolling stock, infrastructure, and facilities. Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) – Mixed-use development of residential, commercial, and retail uses within walking distance of a transit station or bus route. Transit Signal Priority – Transit signal priority either gives or extends a green signal to public transit vehicles under certain circumstances to reduce passenger travel times, improve schedule adherence, and reduce operating costs. Unlinked Trip – A trip involving a single boarding and alighting from a transit vehicle. For example a commute from home to work achieved by boarding a bus to a train, and then taking another bus after leaving the train, represents three unlinked trips. See also Linked Trip. Vanpool – Consists of a group of 5 to 15 people who regularly travel together to work (typically 30 miles or more roundtrip) in a DART-provided van. Vehicle Revenue Mile – Vehicle mile during which the vehicle is in revenue service (i.e., picking up and/or dropping off passengers. Zero Denials – A Federal mandate that in effect states that a provider cannot systematically deny paratransit trips on an on-going basis.

Second Quarter R FY 2018 Introduction

This section of the Quarterly Report focuses on fixed route ridership, although the first chart and table include summaries of total system ridership, including Vanpool ridership. Fixed-route ridership reporting includes the number of unlinked passenger trips (e.g. boarding passengers are counted resulting in transferring passengers being counted each time they board a vehicle).

Ridership statistics can be examined in several different ways: as totals, as averages and as ratios related to service levels. Each reporting technique has its value in analyzing ridership and each presents data from a different perspective. While total ridership is an important measure, it can vary significantly from month to month because of seasonality and the variation in the number of weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays in a month. The use of average daily ridership figures eliminates the issue of monthly calendar differences and makes direct comparisons of ridership more comparable. Average weekday ridership is the primary measurement discussed in this report.

Bus ridership is derived daily from the on-board revenue collection system. Light rail (LRT) ridership is determined by statistically factoring Automated Passenger Counter (APC) sample data collected monthly. Trinity Railway Express (TRE) ridership is manually counted daily. Paratransit ridership is compiled from daily trip manifests. Dallas Streetcar ridership has been developed from a manual sampling process until the APC system installed on those vehicles is fully functional and tested.

The productivity of DART services relative to the resources used to supply those services is reported by ratios that measure performance. Service Standards were adopted in 1995 and have been updated periodically to define the performance metrics and to establish benchmarks against which to measure individual routes’ performance. These statistics are compiled into a Route Performance Index that identifies those routes that are performing above, at or below standard. In 2003, the Service Standards Policy was amended to include Site-specific Shuttles and DART-on-Call zones in the services monitored. In 2009, the policy was further amended to include Flex Routes in the evaluation process.

The Service Standards Monitoring Report included in this section of the Quarterly Report includes the modifications to policy made in 2003 and 2009. The performance metrics employed in this report are those adopted for FY 2010.

Each element of this report is accompanied by a series of charts or tables summarizing ridership during the quarter.

Fixed Route Total

• Total system ridership includes fixed route (bus, light rail and commuter rail), Paratransit and Vanpool riders. Riders of both scheduled and special event services are reported • Total system ridership in the second quarter of FY 2018 was 14.9 million riders, a decrease of 8.5 percent from the second quarter of FY 2017. • Fixed route ridership totaled 14.5 million passengers in the second quarter of FY 2018, a decrease of 8.4 percent from the second quarter of FY 2017. Bus system decreases in the second quarter continued and rail ridership decreased. • Bus System ridership totaled 7.3 million riders, 8.2 percent below the second quarter of FY 2017. Additional ridership development initiatives on select routes were inaugurated in late March 2018. • Trinity Railway Express ridership was 511,436 passengers in the second quarter, a decrease of 5.2 percent from last year. New schedules implemented in October 2016 are resulting in positive ridership results, with more positive on Saturdays. • Light rail ridership was 6.7 million riders in the second quarter of FY 2018, a decrease of 8.7 percent from the second quarter of FY 2017. Service quality issues, including service interruptions and on-time performance issues have contributed to the decrease. • Dallas Streetcar ridership in the second quarter decreased significantly over last year as equipment reliability issues and frequent service interruptions continue to plague the line. Over 22,000 rides were taken on the Streetcar in the second quarter. • Paratransit ridership decreased to 187,792 passenger trips in the second quarter of FY 2018, a drop of 0.2 percent from the FY 2017 levels. Paratransit ridership includes trips made by clients using Lyft service.

Weekday Saturday Sunday

• LRT ridership in the second quarter totaled 6.7 million riders, a decrease of 8.7 percent over the second quarter of FY 2018. • Weekday ridership in the second quarter averaged 86,501 passengers, a decrease of 10.0 percent over the second quarter of FY 2017. • Saturday ridership in the second quarter averaged 53,655 passengers, a decrease of 3.6 percent from the FY 2017 level. • Sunday ridership in the second quarter averaged 34,887 passengers, a decrease of 3.5 percent over the FY 2017 level. • Ridership at the CityLine/Bush station continues to grow as the office and retail development at the station experience increased occupancy. The residential community adjacent to the station is being occupied and additional construction is occurring, increasing the population at the station. Ridership growth is slow but steady. • Growth in ridership is, however, limited by factors that include limited resources for bus service delivery that constrains the provision of the “first-mile” and “last-mile” connections to residential areas and employment centers that are located beyond walking distance of light rail stations. • The opening of the South Oak Cliff line segment to the University of North Texas continues to experience significant net new ridership. There was some shift of riders from the , decreasing its ridership.

Second Quarter R-8 FY 2018 Service Standards Monitoring Report

Purpose and Approach

DART’s Service Standards Policy directs that a quarterly Service Standards Monitoring Report describing the performance of the DART bus system be provided to the Board of Directors. Bus route performance is measured using a Route Performance Index (RPI). The RPI is calculated for each DART bus route. The RPI is based on comparisons of each individual route’s performance against the adopted target in each of three performance measures. Those measures are passengers per revenue hour, passengers per trip and subsidy per passenger. The targets for each of these measures are defined for each of six route types, Crosstown, Express, Rail Feeder, Transit Center Feeder, Local and Site-specific Shuttle. In addition, a Service Performance Index (SPI) is calculated for the DART-on-Call service and for Flex routes. This latter index measures performance against targets for subsidy per passenger and passengers per revenue hour.

The Service Standards define an RPI (or SPI) of 0.6 or greater as satisfactory performance. Routes whose RPI (or SPI) values fall below 0.6 are targeted for corrective action up to and including elimination. Routes with an RPI (or SPI) value between 0.6 and 0.8 are targeted for review to take a proactive approach to both identify and correct downward trending performance and to improve overall performance.

The following report has been prepared using the adopted FY 2010 targets. New and revised routes are provided a 24-month introductory period as their ridership develops to its full potential and are only considered for modifications to improve ridership during the introductory period.

Second Quarter Report

In the second quarter, 50 (32.7 percent) of 153 routes and services had RPI or SPI values of 0.6 or better. Thirteen routes (8.5 percent had RPI values of less than 0.3, half of the acceptable level. An additional 27 routes (17.6 percent) had RPI values of 0.3.

Two routes (0.1 percent) had RPI values of 1.0 or greater and an additional seven routes (4.6 percent) had RPI values of 0.9.

Summaries of route performance by route type are presented on the following pages with detailed tables following the narrative. Charts of DART operated route performance are presented following the tables.

Second Quarter R-9 FY 2018 Crosstown Routes

• Thirteen of 23 crosstown routes, 401 (Irving), 402 (Garland, Richardson, Addison, Carrollton), 403 (Irving, Carrollton, Addison, Richardson), 405 (Dallas), 410 (Garland, Plano, Richardson), 415 (Dallas), 428 (Dallas Garland), 444 (Cockrell Hill, Dallas), 445 (Dallas), 451 (Dallas, Plano, Richardson), 452 (Plano), 475 (Dallas) and 987 (Rapid Ride in Dallas and Garland) failed to achieve an RPI value of 0.6. • Routes 402 and 403 are new having just begun their service in the last week of the quarter. • The remaining crosstown routes performed at or above the 0.6 level during the second quarter. • Four crosstown routes, 488, 404, 466 and 486 performed at an RPI level of 0.8 or better. • Two routes performed at the 0.7 level. • Four routes performed at the 0.6 level.

Local Routes

• Six of the 29 Local routes (20.7 percent) posted RPI values of 0.6 or greater in the second quarter of FY 2017. • Routes 11 (Dallas), 110 (Dallas) and 2 (Dallas) were best performing Local routes, with RPIs of 1.1, 0.8 and 0.7 respectively. Route 11 was the most heavily patronized route. Route 110 continues to be a strong performer, serving areas of eastern Dallas in the I 30 corridor. • Routes 26 (Dallas), 164 (Dallas) and 183 (Addison, Dallas, Plano) were acceptable performing routes at the 0.6 level. • Twenty-three routes fell below the 0.6 RPI value. Ten of these routes performed at the 0.5 RPI level, just below the acceptable level. An additional seven routes performed at the 0.4 RPI level. • Two routes, 27 (Dallas) and 84 (Dallas) performed at the 0.2 level. Route 84 was begun in late March and is in its development period. Route 27 was recently improved in order to stimulate ridership..

Site-Specific Shuttles

• Site-specific Shuttles are operated in partnership with the sponsors that they serve. The performance reported here is based upon DART’s share of the cost of operation. • Five of eleven Site-specific Shuttles performed at or above the 0.6 level. • The UT Dallas route had an RPI of 1.7 in the second quarter. The Baylor shuttle performed at a 0.9 RPI. • Two routes, 768 (SMU) and U T Southwestern posted RPI values of 0.8. • The D-Link performed at an RPI value of 0.1 in the second quarter. The route 723 Bishop Arts Service has been discontinued. • Route 749, the former route 49 now serves the Design District with improved service frequencies. Its performance was at the 0.4 level but is expected to improve as ridership develops. • The Texas Instruments Main Campus shuttle performed at the 0.3 RPI level.

DART-on-Call

Second Quarter R-11 FY 2018

• One of the eight DART-on-Call zones exceeded the 0.6 Service Performance Index level. • The North Central Plano and Richardson performed at 0.7 level. • The Rowlett (SPI 0.5) zone was the next on the list. • The remaining zones performed below the 0.5 level as ridership in most zones has been decreasing. • The Glenn Heights zone that had formerly been the best performing has been regaining ridership. Midday service added to this zone has resulted in a change in ridership patterns but has not resulted in significantly increased ridership. • The Park Cities zone, with an SPI value of 0.1, continues to experience low ridership. A pilot project using Uber to provide trips to, from and within the zone is being conducted as a cost-effective and productive way to accommodate riders.

FLEX Routes

• Two of the six FLEX routes met the 0.6 Service Performance Index level. • Flex routes, 843 (Plano) and 841 (Plano, Richardson) performed at the 0.6 level. • Route 842 (Dallas), performing at the 0.4 level has been replaced by GoLink service to provide service more specifically targeted to the needs of the community it serves. • The South Irving route, 840 performed at the 0.3 level. • The Rowlett route (887) continues to perform at the bottom of the list of Flex routes. Its performance will continue to be assessed as a new DART-on-Call zone is begun in Rowlett in the third quarter.

Several factors attributed to the decline in ridership for 2017, including: ○○ New Year’s Eve fell on a Sunday for 2017, and Sunday ridership is always lower than Saturday. ○○ Fort Worth did not provide Sunday service for New Year’s Eve – this limited the traffic coming through CentrePort/DFW Airport Station on TRE. ○○ It was much colder – 27 degrees vs. 58 degrees from the previous year, and unfortunately, inclement weather negatively affects ridership. • Between Dec. 15, 2017 and Jan. 1, 2018: ○○ The home page on DART.org was viewed 22,198 times, and the DART.org/specialevents page was viewed 2,311 times. ○○ The Events & Destination page on trinityrailwayexpress.org was viewed 2,049 times, and the NYE information page on the TRE website was viewed 2,950 times. ○○ The GoPass offer was viewed 2,909 times and received 70 click-throughs.

Executive Summary

The Planning and Development Department consists of two divisions which report directly to the Vice President, Mobility Programs Development, and Service Planning and Scheduling.

This department is responsible for a broad range of planning and development activities, from ongoing refinement of the current bus system, to conceptualizing future services and projects and advancing them through various levels of development.

The scope of work of the Planning and Development Department includes the following responsibilities and functions:

✓ Service Planning & Scheduling performs specific functions to include short-range and midrange bus service planning, scheduling, and innovative services like vanpools and shuttles ✓ The Mobility Program Development Division performs planning, design and development of Capital Projects, ITS projects (ICM) and Passenger facility amenities

Highlights This Quarter

Service Planning & Scheduling

• Employer Services Program: Site-specific shuttles or employer shuttle services incorporate bus services targeted at employers for services designed specifically for the employees of the employer. These services are currently operating at D/FW Airport, UTSW Medical Center, Texas Medical City, Texas Instruments, SMU, City of Richardson Galatyn Station Shuttle, McKinney Avenue Streetcar, UTD, Baylor Scott & White and Parkland Hospital.

✓ The UTD Site-Specific Shuttle transitioned into a 10-year shuttle agreement (effective October 1, 2016) to correspond with the approval of a contract for operation of the UTD service. Under the new agreement, DART assumed management of the service contract, and UTD will reimburse DART for at least 50% of the cost of service in FY18 (60% in FY17). UTD will also pay DART for discounted student passes as they have in the past. Final signings of the interlocal agreement with UTD and the contract for the shuttle operation have been completed. Effective with the school year beginning in Fall 2017, Monday through Friday service on the McCallum Express Shuttle has been replaced by an expanded McCallum-Meandering route that effectively (in concert with the existing Frankford route) provides trips every 10 minutes between the campus and McCallum apartment complexes. That service is also operating every 30 minutes on Saturdays. We have successfully incorporated the UTD shuttle into DART’s automated and real-time systems with a data transmission facility on the UTD campus. Construction has been completed on the new campus transit center that has served as the terminal for the three main shuttle routes since January 8, 2018.

______P&D 1 Second Quarter FY 2018

Executive Summary

• Shuttle Service & Ridership:

✓ STAR Transit - Mesquite: Average daily ridership during the second quarter of FY 2018 was 111 passengers in January, 120 in February, and 110 in March. This showed an increase over the same three months in FY 2017 (78, 90, 70). A Second amendment between DART, City of Mesquite and STAR Transit, was approved by the DART Board September 12, 2017, to continue the operation of the Compass Route through the end of FY18. ✓ New Parkland Shuttle: The Parkland Shuttles 704 and 705 initial routing were implemented on August 17, 2015 with the opening of the new Parkland Campus. Additional schedule adjustments were implemented in March 2017 to provide consistent daytime frequency on weekends. Route 704 average weekday ridership: January (681), February (753), March (693). Route 705 average weekday ridership: January (160), February (184), March (189). 704 ridership was up compared to the same three months in FY 2017 (497, 413, 464), whereas 705 ridership was down compared to the same three months in FY 2017 (248, 247, 193). ✓ Park Cities: Average weekday ridership during 2Q18 was 10 passenger trips per day during January, 9 passenger trips during February, and 9 passenger trips during March. This showed a decrease compared to the same three months in FY 2017 (13, 12, 12).

• Amazon Shuttle: Amazon has reached an agreement with STAR Transit to be served by their Hutchins route which will also serve UNT Station, Cedar Valley College, and several Hutchins locations including Federal Express. Amazon is included in the Inland Port zone of DART’s GoLink Mobility on Demand service, which began operations 2Q18, February 26, 2018. Service on the Hutchins routes began April 2, 2018.

• On-Time-Performance (OTP) Projects:

✓ March 2018 Service Changes: March 2018 service changes were implemented, including a number of schedule changes aimed at OTP improvement. ✓ August 2018 Service Changes: A small number of weekend schedule changes aimed at improving OTP will be included in the August package. These changes do not require Board action. ✓ Five-Year Plan for OTP improvement: Staff developed a plan for implementation of a series of schedule adjustments for FY16 – FY20. Funds for FY17 adjustments were included in the FY17 Operating Budget and were implemented as a part of FY17 service changes. Based upon the current Financial Plan, all changes should be completed early by the end of FY19. Bus OTP for FY18 year-to-date averaged 82.07%, an improvement from previous years.

______P&D 2 Second Quarter FY 2018

Executive Summary

• Special Events:

✓ St. Patrick's Day Parade: The 39th St. Patrick's Day Parade was held on Saturday, March 17, 2018. DART's transportation plan worked well and there were no major issues. Additional LRT capacity was added along with DART volunteers, DART Police, transit personnel and other DART staff. ✓ Other Special Events: During 2Q18, the Martin Luther King Jr. parades and associated events in Dallas and Garland during the weekend of January 13-15 impacted DART service, as well as the Rock & Roll Marathon and other related events during the weekend of March 24-25.

• Enhanced Bus Corridor: Daktronics digital sign flickering issues have been resolved. Enhanced Bus Shelter pilot program was a success. Recommendation to install 9 additional Enhanced Bus Shelters were approved during 2Q18. These shelters will be purchased and installed as part of the new shelter contract. • Downtown Dallas Circulator Options: DART Board of Directors approved a recommendation from the Planning Committee in November 2017 to implement a D-LINK service change on January 29, 2018. The new route would connect the Dallas Streetcar to MATA via Main St., add Sunday service, and end earlier in the evening. Weekday ridership averaged 221 and Saturday averaged 335 in January 2018 on the old route. After the service change, weekday ridership fell to 190 and Saturday to 222, but Sunday service added ridership with an average total of 179. In March, stakeholders were encouraged to see ridership growth to 249 on the average weekday, 316 on Saturday, and 197 on Sunday. • Vanpool Program: The vanpool vendor vRide was sold to Enterprise Rent-A-Care aka EAN Holdings. Transfer of contract via a Novation Agreement (novation agreement legally transfers the Vanpool contract from one vendor to another) was signed in April. DART is currently working with FWTA and DCTA on a joint vanpool procurement to attract future competitive bids for vanpool service. • Service Improvement Activities: DART continues efforts to improve bus service in FY18. March 2018 service changes have been implemented, and include off-peak frequency improvements for 11 routes, route restructuring in Northeast Dallas aimed at making more direct service and improved coverage, and the introduction of new GoLink Mobility on Demand service in 5 of 6 pilot zones located in Plano and Dallas. The sixth GoLink zone will begin operation in August 2018. A second On Call zone for Rowlett is planned for June implementation pending 3Q18 Board approval. • Service Standards: The Operations Committee continued to receive monthly briefings on different aspects of DART’s adopted Service Standards, which are policy guidelines that direct the planning and evaluation of DART services. Briefings will continue through August, and the Board will consider a series of changes to the Standards in the first half of FY19.

Red & Blue Line Platform Extensions The purpose of this project is to modify platforms at 28 stations along the Red and Blue Lines that were constructed before 2004 to accommodate three-car trains. The project includes modifying the CROF cleaning platform and extending the Westmoreland tail track. This modification will increase the carrying capacity of the system and enhance the core capacity of the network. The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) authorized advancement of the Red and Blue Line Platform Extensions project into Entry to Engineering (EE) on July 28, 2017.

Dallas Streetcar Central Link The Dallas Streetcar Central Link is a modern streetcar alignment connecting from the Union Station/Omni Hotel area through the central core of Downtown Dallas, linking to the M-Line trolley near Uptown and Klyde Warren Park.

COMMUTER RAIL

Cotton Belt Corridor Facilities The 26-mile long, regional rail Cotton Belt Corridor extends from DFW International Airport (DFWIA) through the northern portion of the DART service area to the existing DART Red Line, passing through the cities of Grapevine, Coppell, Carrollton, Addison, Dallas, Richardson, and Plano, with 11 proposed stations along the way. This project is in the planning and development phase.

TRINITY RAILWAY EXPRESS (TRE) PROJECTS

Valley View to West Irving Double Tracking This double tracking project involves construction of approximately 1.4 miles of new Class 4 double track between the Dallas/Tarrant County Line and the West Irving Station, including a new bridge structure and conversion of an existing turnout to a crossover. This project is currently in the construction phase.

Positive Train Control (PTC) This project is a result of a Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) mandate to prevent train-to- train collisions, overspeed derailments, movement of a train through a switch left in the wrong position, and incursion into an established work zone.

Second Quarter GRD9 FY 2018 PROGRESS REPORT SCOPE OF PROJECTS

TRE Obsession Bridge The Obsession Bridge, a 155-foot Open Deck Through Double Lattice Truss originally constructed in 1903 and modified in 1934, has reached the end of its useful life. It is currently subjected to speed restrictions for freight trains operating with 286,000-pound cars. As reinforcement is not an option, it is proposed to replace the bridge with a new superstructure with a concrete deck, concrete abutments and composite ties. The bridge truss is eligible for listing on the National Registry of Historic Places.

ADDITIONAL CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT

DART Police Facilities This project provided for the renovation and conservation of the historic Monroe Shops to house a new modern headquarters for the DART Police (completed March 2011). This project also includes the Northeast Substation and the Northwest Substation.

CBD/Traffic Signal Priority (TSP) System The CBD/TSP System project, being developed jointly with the City of Dallas (COD), provides traffic signaling priority to trains in the central business district, to ensure schedule achievement. It comprises communication between trains, detection equipment, and traffic signals.

CBD Rail Replacement The CBD Rail Replacement project is a phased implementation plan to address the condition of rail wear in the CBD (Pearl Station to Houston Street). The project includes: Phase I, limited replacement of worn rail in selected curves; Phase II, special track procurement; and Phase III, full replacement of remaining CBD rail.

CCTV on LRVs The CCTV on LRVs project involves procurement and installation of CCTV cameras, recorders, and modems to provide surveillance capability in DART’s fleet of light rail vehicles. The project plan includes two phases: Phase I – installation of 48 pre-wired vehicles, and Phase II – installation of 115 vehicles to be configured.

STREETCAR PROGRAMS

Streetcar Extension Projects The City of Dallas identified funding for design and construction services to extend the Union Station to Oak Cliff Streetcar Project south approximately 0.75 mile to the Bishop Arts District (Southern Extension – completed and in Revenue Service in August 2016), and north approximately 0.67 mile to near the Dallas Omni Hotel (Northern Extension). DART is serving as the City’s technical representative on the Northern Extension. The project is being initiated as design/bid/build project, and is being procured and managed through DART.

Board Strategic 4: Expand DART’s transportation system to serve cities inside and Priority outside the current service area

Description This project (known as D2) establishes a second light rail transit (LRT) line through Downtown Dallas by connecting two points: Victory Station and the Green Line near the Good Latimer/Elm St. intersection. It doubles the LRT capacity through Downtown Dallas, relieving congestion on the existing Bryan/Pacific Transit Mall and on the Downtown junctions and increasing capacity systemwide.

An Alternatives Analysis/Draft Environmental Impact Statement (AA/DEIS) was completed in May 2010. The second phase of the AA effort was completed under an FTA grant to address comments and suggestions received during the AA/DEIS. That effort culminated with the DART Board of Directors’ selection of a Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) in September 2015. That decision led to the initiation of Project Development (PD) on the LPA in early 2016. On October 25, 2016, the Board of Directors approved the FY 17 Financial Plan, which included $1.3 billion for development of an all-subway D2. This action marked a departure from the direction previously provided with the selection of the LPA. The new direction required a refinement of the LPA, where options that had been considered during the original AA/DEIS and possibly other corridors would be evaluated. This effort concluded with the Board’s confirmation of the Commerce Alternative as the LPA on September 26, 2017. PD was re-initiated on the new LPA in Fall 2017 and will conclude in or before Fall 2019.

Assumptions made in the FY 2017 Twenty-Year Financial Plan about the project include an approximately 50/50 funding share between local/federal sources, and the project is expected to be completed by 2024.

Status DART completed the LPA refinement process that culminated with the selection of the Commerce/Victory/Swiss Alternative as the LPA and, shortly after, submitted DART’s third D2 submittal for Core Capacity Program funding. The submittal was based on the Commerce Alternative, which also serves as the basis for the Project Development effort (i.e., Preliminary Engineering and Environmental Impact Statement). The D2 submittal and project received a Medium-High rating.

Dallas Central Business District Interrelated Projects (CBD) D2 Alignment D2 Alignment

Status (Continued) The Project Development (PD) effort is focused on the Commerce Alternative, but the Study Team will continue to examine LPA routing options along Pacific and Elm Streets, as directed by the DART Board of Directors. Current and upcoming work includes finalizing scope of work, establishing a schedule, collecting building foundation plans and taking soil boring samples along the corridor(s).

On March 20, 2018, FTA denied DART’s request to extend Project Development to November 2019. At the same time, it withdrew the project from the Capital Investment Grants (CIG) program. FTA recommended that DART reapply to enter Engineering phase after all required activities are completed.

Board Strategic 2: Optimize and preserve (state of good repair) the existing transit Priority system

Description The purpose of this project is to modify platforms at 28 stations along the Red and Blue Lines that were constructed before 2004 in order to accommodate three-car trains. Modifications include extending platforms and/or raising portions of the platform to permit level boarding. This modification will increase the carrying capacity of the system and enhance the core capacity of the network.

Two ancillary projects related to the platform extension project are included in the 30% design. These projects that modify existing infrastructure to accommodate three-car trains are: modifying the CROF cleaning platform and extending the Westmoreland tail track.

Status On January 27, 2017, DART issued an NTP to design teams for Task 1, Standards Development Committee.

On July 28, 2017, the FTA provided approval to enter into engineering.

Design activities were completed under Task 1 for Cityplace/Uptown Station ventilation capacity study on January 3, 2018. Ventilation capacity is sufficient.

A traction power load flow study was completed and report submitted on December 12, 2017. Areas of power loss were identified. DART has reviewed findings from traction power load flow study and will revisit study using updated assumptions for rail operations.

NTP for pre-construction activities were issued in October and November 2017.

NTP for design services under Task 2 were issued to Groups C, D, and E in December 2017 and to Groups A and B and systems design under Group A in January 2018.

Design and CMGC teams are working to incorporate value engineering proposals in the 65% submittals anticipated in April and May 2018.

Anticipated date for submittal to FTA for Full Funding Grant Agreement (FFGA) is August 2018.

Board Strategic 3: Optimize DART’s influence in regional transportation planning Priority 4: Expand DART’s transportation system to serve cities inside and outside the current service area

Description The 26-mile long, regional rail Cotton Belt Corridor extends from Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFWIA) through the northern portion of the DART service area to Shiloh Road in Plano. The corridor passes through the cities of Grapevine, Coppell, Carrollton, Addison, Dallas, Richardson, and Plano. Up to 11 stations have been proposed. The Cotton Belt Project would interface with three DART LRT lines: The Red Line in Richardson/Plano, the Green Line in Carrollton, and the Orange Line at DFW Airport. Also at DFW Airport, the project would connect to TEX Rail Regional Rail Line to Fort Worth and the DFW Airport Skylink People Mover.

The proposed project is a mostly at-grade, mostly single-track option. It includes both the Cypress Waters Option (diverting from the Cotton Belt to provide a station near North Lake) and the Red Line South Option (diverting from the Cotton Belt to provide a station at CityLine before returning to the Cotton Belt), terminating at Shiloh Road.

Three federal agencies are involved in oversight of the Cotton Belt Project. The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) serves as Lead Agency and the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will serve as Cooperating Agencies. Funding for the project is being sought through the FRA- administered Railroad Rehabilitation and Improvement Financing (RRIF) program. FAA has jurisdiction over DFW Airport and Addison Airport.

Status In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), DART is preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Cotton Belt Corridor Regional Rail project. This EIS will build on the April 2014 Documentation of Environmental Conditions and 5% Engineering for the Cotton Belt Corridor Regional Rail Project Report that documented environmental conditions associated with several rail alternatives being considered.

In anticipation of relaunching the project, a series of public meetings were held during the last two weeks in August 2016. The DART FY 2017 Twenty-Year Financial Plan (approved October 25, 2016) includes funding for the Cotton Belt and accelerates implementation

Second Quarter GRD38 FY 2018 Cotton Belt Corridor Facilities Commuter Rail

Status (Continued) of the project from the year 2035 to 2022. On October 25, 2016, the DART Board added value to the General Planning Consultant (GPC6) contract to advance the Cotton Belt Project. Since December 2016, DART staff has been coordinating twice monthly with FTA, FRA, and FAA in One DOT meetings.

DART is currently updating the documentation compiled in 2014 and advancing the engineering from 5% Design to 10% Design. DART is advancing a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). The DEIS will be available on April 20, 2018. Since January 2016, DART has coordinated with individual cities and stakeholders along the corridor. A series of public meetings were held throughout 2017.

Additionally, the corridor has been divided into four focus areas to address the individual concerns of communities along the corridor. Area Focus Group (AFG) meetings were held prior to the public meetings. The AFGs are composed of residents, stakeholders and community leaders. They will provide input and assist with resolving issues. Additionally, they will help to develop support for the project and disseminate information to their respective neighborhoods or groups.

A Service Plan Public Hearing was held on March 27, 2018. Public hearings on the DEIS will be held on May 14-16, 2018.

Issues Community Concerns North Dallas residents and Dallas Councilpersons have expressed concern about an alignment through North Dallas and the number of stations.

Board Strategic 1: Continually improve service and safety experiences and Priority perceptions for customers and the public 2: Optimize and preserve (state of good repair) the existing transit system

Description Congress approved the Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008 which resulted in a Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) mandate, CFR 49 Part 236 I, Positive Train Control (PTC). PTC is designed to prevent train-to-train collisions, overspeed derailments, movement of a train through a switch left in the wrong position and incursion into an established work zone.

Status In August 2013, the US Government Accountability Office (GAO) submitted a report to the US Congress supporting the findings reported by the FRA’s 2012 report to Congress which indicated that meeting the December 2015 deadline is not possible for many Class 1 and Commuter Railroads. The industry at large supports and confirms this view citing concerns regarding lack of equipment availability and industry readiness, technical integration risk, available radio spectrum, and a general lack of consulting expertise to assist with systems integration and implementation.

The FRA issued an open letter to the rail industry on January 27, 2015, advising they would only audit critical elements of a railroad’s PTC Safety Plan (PTCSP). The FRA’s expectation is that the railroad will exercise complete responsibility for ensuring the PTCSP is complete, consistent, and accurate. The FRA will not take responsibility for determination of the legal and factual sufficiency in the event of civil or criminal litigation. The FRA will continue preliminary reviews. The FRA will accept an independent third-party reviewer’s findings that an integrated PTC system and all of its subsystems, as well as the development and test processes and associated documentation: (1) has no or minimal critical issues; (2) supports the level of certification requested by the railroad; and (3) is complete, consistent, current and accurate.

The Trinity Railway Express (TRE) is working on several fronts to advance the implementation of PTC in accordance with the approved TRE PTC Implementation Plan (PTCIP). With safety, interoperability and cost effectiveness as core objectives, DART and FWTA (now known as Trinity Metro) have formed a Regional Positive Train Control coalition to address PTC. To maximize the PTC technology in an efficient manner, the technology will be

Second Quarter GRD50 FY 2018 Positive Train Control (PTC) TRE Projects

Status (Continued) implemented as a regional solution consistent with the Operations and Maintenance strategy which leverages shared operations and technology between TRE and FWTA (now known as Trinity Metro).

The FRA issued a Status Report to Congress in August 2015 stating the majority of the railroads throughout the country will not be meeting the December 31, 2015, deadline. The report listed the ongoing challenges facing the industry (wireless spectrum availability, limited suppliers, potential radio interference). The Class I Railroads have completed approximately 50 percent of the required installations, while APTA has stated that 29 percent of commuter railroads will meet the target by the end of the year with the remaining railroads requiring until at least 2020.

Congress passed the Surface Transportation Extension Act of 2015, which revised the Positive Train Control requirements including the extension of the substantial implementation deadline from December 31, 2015, to December 31, 2018; permits carriers to provide for an alternative schedule and sequence for implementing a PTC system, subject to DOT review; requires railroads to submit a revised PTC Implementation Plan by January 27, 2016; requires railroads to submit an Annual Status Report to the FRA by March 31st each year; and requires FRA compliance reviews and reports due to Congress by July 1, 2018.

DART has negotiated a sublease agreement with Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) and PTC-220, LLC, (comprised of Class I Railroads, spectrum owners) through the Trackage Rights Agreement for the purposes of leasing radio spectrum. This sublease agreement was presented to the Regional Rail Right-of-Way Board in January 2017 and approved by the DART Board of Directors in February 2017. The Spectrum Sublease Agreement was signed in June 2017.

DART has also negotiated the license agreements required for the Regional PTC with Meteorcomm to allow for the radio equipment necessary for the rolling stock, communication systems and wayside segments. This lease agreement was presented to the Regional Rail Right-of-Way Board in February 2017 and approved by the DART Board of Directors in February 2017. The Meteorcomm Agreement was fully executed in May 2017.

Second Quarter GRD51 FY 2018 Positive Train Control (PTC) TRE Projects

Status (Continued) The first regional PTC specification was issued in January 2014 and bids were received in April 2014, with anticipated NTP award in the spring of 2015.

After careful revision and consultation, North Texas Commuter Rail Alliance (NTCRA) – FWTA (now known as Trinity Metro), TRE, and DCTA -- cancelled the solicitation and rewrote the Statement of Work to issue a new performance-based solicitation. The goal was to reduce the prescriptive nature of the previous solicitation. An independent consultant was selected to rewrite the Statement of Work in January 2015. The solicitation was issued in June 2015, with proposals received in September 2015. DCTA notified DART that it was withdrawing from the regional solicitation in June 2015.

The TRE commissioned an assessment of the Train Control & Dispatch system, the signal system, the fiber optic line and the space requirements in the signal houses to determine each item’s capability to support and interface with the PTC equipment and software requirements. The assessments were issued as an Amendment to the RFP in July 2015.

The negotiations with the Systems Integrator did not yield an acceptable cost proposal; therefore, DART and FWTA (now known as Trinity Metro) made the determination to self-perform the various components of the project working directly with the vendors. The two agencies worked together to devise the roles and responsibilities of each agency. For example, DART will take the lead with PTC- 220, LLC, for the spectrum and work with Meteorcomm for the radio equipment while FWTA (now known as Trinity Metro) will negotiate the design and installation of the Back Office System, Dispatch System, rolling stock and wayside.

The TRE has signed an Agreement with MCI/Verizon for the installation of a fiber optic cable between Fort Worth Texas & Pacific (T&P) Station and Union Station to support the PTC project. This work includes the build out of approximately two miles of additional needed conduit and 80 lateral hand-holes at the Equipment Maintenance Facility, instrument houses, stations, switches and signals. Notice to Proceed (NTP) was issued to MCI/Verizon on July 13, 2016, with design and proofing scheduled to be completed by December 2016 and construction finished by November 2017. In September 2017, the project was halted because Ben E Keith closed access to the 6th Street property on the west side of the “Hole in the

Second Quarter GRD52 FY 2018 Positive Train Control (PTC) TRE Projects

Status (Continued) Wall”. The contractor had no access for two months. Work was restarted in December 2017 and the fiber installation was completed in March 2018.

The Radio Spectrum Analysis has been completed by the Transportation Technology Institute (TTI), which confirmed the three radio tower structures currently in place along the TRE are sufficient to support the PTC project.

On November 18, 2016, Wabtec Inc. delivered the revised price proposal for the TRE PTC system design and implementation, including the Hosted Solution for the Back Office System, which is currently under review. While the Regional PTC System contract was being negotiated, a Limited Notice to Proceed (LNTP) was signed in August 2017 that provided Wabtec the authorization to perform the initial Design and Planning.

The scope of the LNTP included the following:

• Project Management Contract Data Requirement Lists (PM CDRLs) • System Engineering • Geographic Information System (GIS) Track Data • Wayside Interface Unit – WIU • Operation Control Center • Communication System

All of the LNTP items were 100% complete as of January 31, 2018.

On December 18, 2017, the FWTA (now known as Trinity Metro) signed the PTC System Implementation Contract with Wabtec Inc.

Wabtec has reported the following status as of March 31, 2018:

• System Engineering 27% complete • Test Procedure Development 0% complete • Engineering Functional Requirements 0% complete • Track Data Services (GIS) 35% complete • Communication Implementation 30% complete • Wayside Implementation 30% complete • Onboard Installation 18% complete

Second Quarter GRD54 FY 2018 TRE Obsession Bridge TRE Projects

Board Strategic 2: Optimize and preserve (state of good repair) the existing transit Priority system

Description The Obsession Bridge, located on the Trinity Railway Express between Stemmons Freeway and Inwood Road, was originally constructed in 1903. The 155-foot Open Deck Through Double Lattice Truss is original with modifications on the Open Deck Timber Structures performed in 1934. This bridge structure has reached the end of its useful life and is currently subjected to speed restrictions for freight trains operating with 286,000-pound cars.

Status During the inspection and load rating of the Obsession Bridge in 2011, it was determined the truss in its current condition could no longer adequately support the required railroad loadings of the heavier cars being used by the railroads. The structure currently has a speed restriction of 10mph for any train with 286,000-pound cars. Because of the age of the structure, reinforcement is not a reasonable solution due to the fatigue issues of the structure that would require complete replacement of all of the primary tension members and connections (over half of the bridge components), as well as repairing all of the members that have been damaged by impacts and years of service.

Replacing the bridge would allow freight traffic to travel at maximum authorized speed across the bridge, thus improving system throughput. A new bridge structure would also have a higher bridge rating.

The proposed replacement includes a new double-track ballasted steel superstructure on concrete piers/columns, concrete abutments, and composite ties.

The statement of work and cost estimate for the proposed replacement was finalized with the design firm, with Notice to Proceed for design issued in the second quarter of FY16. One-hundred percent design was approved in October 2016, allowing for the preparation of the solicitation documents. DART received the executed Memorandum of Agreement from the Texas Historical Commission and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Permit on July 12, 2017.

A Request for Proposal for the bridge construction will be let by the end of the third quarter FY 2018.

Second Quarter GRD55 FY 2018 TRE Obsession Bridge TRE Projects

Issues Historical Value The bridge truss is eligible for listing on the National Registry of Historic Places (NRHP); the new design and removal of the truss bridge requires mitigation. DART worked in conjunction with the Texas Historical Commission (THC) during the design phase to show the effect and determination of an appropriate mitigation, which was determined to be a mitigation in place – resulting in the truss section to be moved directly north of the existing location.

Coordination Efforts This work will also require coordination with the Army Corp of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency, and requires a 404 Permit.

Board Strategic 1: Continually improve service and safety experiences and Priority perceptions for customers and the public 2: Optimize and preserve (state of good repair) the existing transit system

Description The CBD/TSP System project provides traffic signaling priority to trains in the central business district to ensure schedule achievement. It has been developed jointly with the City of Dallas (COD) and comprises communication between trains, detection equipment, and traffic signals.

Status Phase I (Design & Integrate with COD) and Phase II (Monitor LRV, Control Traffic Signals in CBD) have been completed. Phase IIA is managed by the COD. COD is in the process of upgrading traffic signal controllers and central software. DART continues to monitor the City’s progress and to make sure that the new controller will perform to the same level as the existing controller.

DART is supporting COD for testing the timing configuration of the new controller. COD and DART completed test of TSP operation with the new controller at Ervay Street, Thanksgiving Square, Akard Street, Field Street, St. Paul Street, Lamar Street, Harwood Street, Olive Street, Pearl Street, and Market Street. TSP operation at new ATC locations have been monitored and confirmed successful for the new controller.

DART has completed TSP Three-Car Simulation Before Study with different three-car consist loads and highlighted recommendations to improve LRT rail flow through the SE junction.

1. On average 10% of the trains actually stop at 10S (signal stop), which could block Routh Street if the train is a three- car train.

2. Routh cross street vehicular traffic will be impacted part of the time when three-car trains stop at 10S, with gate closed, unless Routh Street’s geometry is reconfigured.

Currently, the study is looking at special events and their impact on CBD. Issues None

CMYK Dallas Zoo Dallas Area Rapid Transit helps residents and visitors discover all North Texas has to offer. Our extensive network of light rail, Trinity Railway Express commuter rail, bus routes and paratransit services moves more than 220,000 passengers per day across a 700-square-mile service area.

Explore North Texas and discover something new on DART. From off-the-beaten-path venues to the trendiest spots in town, every trip can be an adventure. These “DARTable” places are an easy walk from a DART rail station or bus stop, and the free GoPass® app makes discovering them easy.

If your journey begins or ends in places not easily served by DART, you now can take the train or bus for the longest portion of the trip, and use Uber or Lyft for the short leg. Customers can access the Uber, Lyft and Zipcar apps through GoPass® by selecting “Connect 2 Car” in the Travel Tools section.

Visit DART.org/DARTable for a list of possibilities that span arts, culture, sports, recreation, dining, shopping and special events.
