DART Bus Stop Improvements Benefit Residents of Wilmington’s 2nd District

DART, working with Wilmington Councilwoman Shané Darby, has completed several bus stop improvements in Wilmington’s 2nd District. Councilwoman Darby contacted DART last spring requesting improvements for the district’s most heavily used bus stops.

New bus shelters were installed along Market St. at 19th St. and opposite 20th St., on Washington St. at Concord Ave. and on 18th St. at Baynard Blvd. The new shelter installations, which include benches and solar lighting, will also receive weekly cleanings and trash removal. A new bench was also installed at the bus stop on Washington St. at 26th St. and another will be added on Washington St. at 30th St.

John Sisson, DTC’s Chief Executive Officer stated, “We know the importance of connecting people to their destinations, safely, and efficiently. Our team is continually looking for ways to improve the customer experience. By adding amenities to our bus stops such as shelters, benches and lighting, our riders are provided with a more comfortable waiting area to access their destinations.”
