5:30pm – Arrive, Networking, DART Welcome
6-7pm – Transit Planning Exercise
*Think you know where the bus should go? Join DART and Jarret Walker & Associates (JWA) for a round of “transit planning 101” where you get to draw the lines on the map and decide where you think the bus should go and why. JWA is a Portland-based transit consulting firm with a global body of work, having designed transit networks from Dallas to Dublin, with Des Moines soon to join the list. Space is limited – RSVP today and learn more about the once-in-a-generation efforts to Reimagine DART!
This is a free event, however registration is required as there is an attendance cap.
Following the event, there will be an optional happy hour. We'll travel together by bus, giving everyone a chance to experience the transit system firsthand.
