Dallas–Fort Worth: DART paratransit strike from 14 June 2026 (if no deal)
In 8 daysLast Updated:
Paratransit drivers who serve Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) say they will strike from 14 June 2026 if contract talks with contractor Transdev do not yield a deal. The walkout would affect door-to-door paratransit service for riders with disabilities across the DART area; the union cites pay, working conditions and respect as key issues, while DART says it has contingency plans. ATU Local 1338 members voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike ahead of the deadline.
This alert was originally created on 6 June 2026.
