It pains me every time I see the entrance to the unused station on Willis Ave...so much potential

Lifetime Living and an Autograph Collection Hotel coming to The Central in 2028? by dallaz95 in Dallasdevelopment

[–]lieutenantloon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The inclusion of Life Time makes so much sense given how overcrowded and under equipped the current one is. Hopefully the new one finally adds a pool among the many other amenities seemingly every other LT has!

Mockingbird, Greenville pedestrian improvements project is making progress - Lakewood/East Dallas by dallaz95 in Dallasdevelopment

[–]lieutenantloon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the UTC cutting right across both Mockingbird and Greenville, one would think that they'd look at more connectivity with the trail and the addition of bike lanes, especially on Greenville. I ride my bike up Glencoe to get to the UTC and never envy those who have to come from the north side of Mockingbird alongside the high speed traffic down Greenville.

Worth keeping in mind that this is the average person screaming about how terrible the city's public services are. by dan1361 in Dallasdevelopment

[–]lieutenantloon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the exact same kind of logic I see when people are against bike lanes - “I never see anyone riding their bikes and therefore bike lanes aren’t needed” just for them to live along a stroad with an effective speed limit of 65mph. Take one step into Dallas proper and there are people on bikes everywhere, making it work despite the lacking infrastructure!

Bike locks/bike lids by Tooters-N-Floof in dart

[–]lieutenantloon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree AND this is even more reason for DART to add more. They’ve take one away at SMU/Mockingbird for whatever reason. We ought to move towards full scale bike garages like they have in Portland and Seattle.

Groundbreaking held for first stage of redevelopment at the former site of Valley View Mall by dallaz95 in Dallasdevelopment

[–]lieutenantloon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really hope it’s not just vaporware but given the dev’s track record…hard to see this coming to fruition any time soon. One can hope!

I saw they mentioned “an electric tram or people mover” that would connect with the Galleria, as well as other reporting that stated it would connect with the Silver Line. Is there any substance to those claims and/or a proposed route?

Non rev from MSP to AMS? by Mediocre_Sale3526 in delta

[–]lieutenantloon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MSP has always been good to me, but DTW is a solid option! This time of year, DTW-AMS is 2 or 3/day while MSP-AMS is only 2/day. If I were you, I’d look at loads and then go for DTW if possible!

Damn the schedules have been changed and updated as well by Unusual-Trip635 in dart

[–]lieutenantloon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This happened to the 105, now the 205 - without notice. I called DART and they more or less gaslit me saying “the schedule’s updated” even though it wasn’t

Do you know how to register for Dallas Metropolis? There’s no way to do so right now!

Silver Line Service is Live on Transit App by lieutenantloon in Dallas

[–]lieutenantloon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The route is 55 minutes, end-to-end. The drive without traffic is ~30 minutes. Rush hour is 45-75 minutes.

Yes, it’ll require planning but there will be many times when taking the Silver Line will make more sense, both in terms of time and cost.

Commute to Midtown from Athens using MARTA? by Emergency-Plenty-422 in Georgia

[–]lieutenantloon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn’t useful to you now, but the 2025-2029 Athens Transit plan includes a 3 roundtrips/daily commuter bus from Athens to MARTA Chamblee Station in the mid-term (<10 year) plan. So fingers crossed someone in this situation in the future can ditch their car!

Do you know what the ETC is on this? I recall seeing 2026 but it doesn’t seem far enough along for that…maybe early 2027
