TRANSIT EDUCATION

Few things are as integral to American life as transportation. Whether you travel by foot, bike, car, boat, bus, plane or train, transportation affects you each and every day—impacting your time, your budget, your community and your environment.

DART's Transit Education program teaches you about all the ways transportation influences your life and also how you can use mass transit safely and effectively. Any group with 20 to 45 people in DART's 13 member cities—whether school-affiliated or not—can participate in the program.
