As Plano ramps up for the arrival of Toyota employees at their new Legacy West headquarters in the coming months, Dallas Area Rapid Transit will launch a new express bus route linking the $3 billion campus to the Parker Road rail station.

The changes will go into effect Monday.

The transit agency has extended bus Route 208 past the Northwest Plano Park and Ride in order to serve corporate campuses in the Legacy West area. That new route will directly serve corporations such as JC Penney, Toyota, Liberty Mutual and JP Morgan Chase.

DART officials said that new route operates on alternate trips, about every 30 minutes during morning and evening rush hours.

The agency is also implementing a new nonstop bus line, Route 211, to “provide a faster, more direct connection between the Parker Road station and major corporate campuses in northwest Plano,” spokesman Mark Ball said in November. That express service would run every 15 minutes.

They have also revised Route 346, which consolidated existing Routes 346 and 348 to circulate within Legacy West, just east and west of the tollway, in order to serve the remaining Legacy destinations, he said.

Route 346 will be available only during peak hours, DART officials said in a news release.

In addition to planning for Legacy West, other stations will have updated services that also begin Monday.

Near Cypress Waters, Routes 500 and 510 have been adjusted and Route 722, the free D-Link Service in Dallas, will now be extended to Good-Latimer between Canton and Gaston in order to serve Deep Ellum.

Two new stops on Good-Latimer, northbound at Elm Street and southbound at Main Street, have also been added, DART officials said.
