CONVENTION CENTER AREA TO UPTOWN/KLYDE WARREN PARK

The Dallas Streetcar Central Link is a proposed modern streetcar project connecting from the Convention Center area through the central core of Downtown Dallas, linking the current Dallas Streetcar system to the M-Line trolley near Uptown and Klyde Warren Park.

DART, in cooperation with the City of Dallas and Downtown Dallas, Inc. (DDI), evaluated a range of alternatives in 2017. Dallas City Council approved a resolution on September 13, 2017 endorsing the Elm/Commerce alternative as the locally preferred alternative. The resolution also stated the need for additional analysis of the Main Street and Young/Harwood alternatives during subsequent FTA Project Development (PD) e�orts.

* Revenue service date may be adjusted depending on coordination with D2 Subway construction.
