TRANSPORTATIONDallas-Fort Worth’s vast transportation infrastructure connects residents and businesses. The freeway system provides east-west and north-south corridors with easy access to job centers and residential communities. Mass transit options, including the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) system, the Fort Worth T, Trinity Railway Express (TRE), the Denton County Transit Authority’s (DCTA) A Train, and the newly launched intermodal TEXRail off er alternatives to cars for getting around the region.

The region’s robust interstate infrastructure provides easy links along the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) corridor, linking Mexico to Canada and to East and West Coast destinations, making it an important intermodal center for the distribution of air, rail, and truck freight. The nation’s two largest railroads, Fort Worth–based Burlington Northern Santa Fe and Union Pacifi c have major operation nodes in the region, off ering business-effi cient access to other key ports and distribution centers across the United States and into Mexico.

Dallas-Fort Worth also is the destination for some of the nation’s most innovative projects discussed on the FUTURE MOBILITY page in this section.
