CHAPTER 2 CAMPUS CONTEXT AND EXISTING CONDITIONS<br />
EXISTING TRANSIT<br />
Bus<br />
DART bus routes around the main campus are<br />
limited in their coverage area, and do not provide<br />
direct links to other parts of the city beyond a<br />
one-mile radius without additional transfers. The<br />
campus is served by Local Bus Route 415 and has<br />
two stops—one adjacent to the DART station and the<br />
other directly across from Founders Hall. Rail Feeder<br />
and Transit Center Bus Route 516 does not enter<br />
the campus, but runs along Camp Wisdom Road<br />
at its northern edge, connecting the Singing Hills<br />
Recreation Center and surrounding neighborhood<br />
with DART’s Camp Wisdom Station.<br />
Light Rail<br />
The DART Blue Line extension was completed in<br />
October 2016, and serves as a vital transit link to<br />
<strong>UNT</strong> <strong>Dallas</strong>, helping to reduce overall vehicle trips.<br />
Its connection from downtown to the main campus<br />
provides convenient access between the main<br />
campus and the <strong>UNT</strong> <strong>Dallas</strong> Law Center.<br />
Representatives from DART participated in the<br />
campus plan's development and expressed a<br />
commitment to continuing to support the university<br />
with needed transit connections.<br />
