With over 30 million passenger trips taken on Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) every year, this fleet modernization effort will help DART continue to meet the evolving needs of its riders with safer, cleaner, and more efficient public transport. Passengers can expect to see the new buses on North Texas routes by spring of 2026, prior to the region serving as host to the FIFA World Cup.
"These CNG buses exemplify GILLIG's dedication to delivering safe, reliable, and cost-effective transit solutions that empower communities and enhance the passenger experience," said Bill Fay, VP, Sales, at GILLIG. "We value our long -standing partnership with Hexagon Agility and are proud to collaborate on this important project to modernize Dallas' transit fleet."
"We're proud to continue our collaboration with GILLIG in delivering industry -leading CNG fuel systems for transit fleets," said Ian MacDonald, Head of Fuel Systems at Hexagon Agility. "As cities like Dallas invest in upgrading their transit systems, CNG stands out as a proven long-term solution because it cuts emissions, lowers fuel and maintenance costs, and improves fleet reliability." |
