SPRING CREEK DEMONSTRATION PROJECT. URBAN CORRIDOR DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM, EARLY IMPLEMENTATION PROJECT

In August, 1971, the city of Dallas and the Dallas Transit System, under the Urban Corridor Demonstration Program, initiated a one-year early implementation project which was to lead to more than a doubling of transit service on DTS' longest route. The Spring Creek Line operates in the highly-congested North Central Expressway corridor from the central business district of Dallas northward for 14.8 miles. The project's goal was to stimulate diversion of CBD-oriented work trips from private auto to rapid bus transit. The bus schedule was revised in order to make bus service more attractive to those persons working in or near the CBD. Included in the report are a history of route service; project development; equipment requirements and a final project evaluation.
