The City of Plano has postponed a scheduled vote regarding the selection of an alternative public transportation provider, should the municipality decide to withdraw from the Dallas Area Rapid Transit system in May. City leaders are currently reviewing potential transit options to replace the current service.
This delay coincides with broader efforts by DART officials to propose significant changes to the agency's governance structure. These proposed adjustments aim to encourage member cities to cancel special elections that were scheduled for May, which would allow those cities to leave the transit service.
Plano is exploring various public transit models as a possible replacement for DART. City officials are holding off on making a final determination about adding another public transit option to the local network while these discussions continue.
Plano is about 12 miles east of The Colony.
