Key changes include replacing single-ride, AM, PM, and midday passes with a standard 3-Hour Pass. While the Day Pass price remains unchanged, the Monthly Pass will see an increase. The Retail Annual Pass will be discontinued, but rates for corporate annual pass members remain the same.

Veterans will receive a 50% discount and can apply for a reduced fare card through DART. The half-price Discount GoPass Tap program for qualifying agency beneficiaries is now permanent. A new tiered discount system is available for bulk sales, including special events, corporate partners, and educational institutions, which now extend to kindergarten through fifth grade.

Some adjustments, such as changes to the corporate annual pass and education programs, took effect on January 1, 2025. Riders can visit DART.org or call 214-979-1111 for full details.
