    The TRE is the worst. Shut down on sun? There is an enormous demand for sunday service.! as for no late runs...i think its a security thing.

    UPDATED: Fort Worth T bus service is coming to Arlington

    I'm an independent cable contractor. I moved with my girlfriend from Denver because her career brought her here to Fort Worth. Thanks to a missleading group of contractors in FW and the bank breaking gas prices, I'm out of business. I decided to simplify and sell the truck for a few bikes (not straight up). I know I can be a career bartender in the DFW area. I found that Funky Town has as good , if not better public trans than Denver. A week later I found that I could go all the way to Dallas and get around town. Wow!, what a great idea this is turning out to be! So I get a job in FW. Training is two weeks long in Arlington. "no problem!", I say, "I'll be there at 4:30." So I go home and check the internet for bus routes to where I'm going. Couldn't find anything for the "T". I check Arlington's web site for half an hour until I get hungry and decide to give up. I'll just do it in the morning. Does anyone know where this story goes? I still have the job, I'm humble and asked to car pool, but really? What a monumental let down. This city is supposed to be playground America, right? How can a city, that size, vote down any mta project. Screw DART! If your city doesn't want that kind or crappy entity in your area, FINE! Start you own. Start small, you'll build revenue through tax, fares, and other contracts. Before you know it you have a great bus system that connects the rest of the metroplex together. Maybe it could, one day, be thriving enough to buy out DART's contract when it's up and be the savior of Dallas, oh yeah and Irving (sorry babs). Its too bad that Arlington has a lot of catching up to do. Should of been thinking about this before you put in the TEXAS GIANT.

    Fort Worth offering cheap electric mowers -- to a few

    I guess you could call this a step in the right direction, or you could call this insulting. Who's absorbing the additional $60,000? Maybe that money could be used for research to renew energy, and get some cars off the DFW highway system. After you mow your lawn with your funky cool $99 electric lawn mower, you can plug it back into the fossil fuel burning electric grid. COME ON PEOPLE!!!!!

    Oak Cliff shootings a sign that things need to change

    Parenting is #1 on preventing gangs and guns. But good parenting is even futile, living in a country that gives it citizens nothing to hope and everything to fear. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. Put down the guns, pick up a passport, get a work visa, this nation has abandonned all who make less than a mill a year.
