Effective Monday, May 11, DCTA will implement service updates that will affect Denton Connect Bus, UNT Campus Shuttles, Lewisville Lakeway On-Demand and Access in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) health emergency.

Below are key May 2020 service changes DCTA riders should keep in mind to plan their essential travel in advance:

Denton Connect Bus 

Denton Connect Routes 5 and 8 will be temporarily suspended to reduce route duplications during COVID-19. 

University of North Texas Campus Shuttles

The University of North Texas (UNT) campus shuttles will transition to a summer schedule. Students can visit UNT's Transportation website and RideDCTA.net for more information.

A-train Station On-Demand Service Connection

For more efficient service, DCTA will only offer on-demand bus service connections from the Downtown Denton Transit Center (DDTC) and Hebron station in Lewisville starting Monday, May 11. 

Lewisville Lakeway On-Demand 

Service hours for Lewisville Lakeway On-Demand have been updated to the following:

• Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. to 9:40 p.m. 
• Saturdays from 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. 

In addition to service hour changes, DCTA is rebranding its microtransit mobile app. Effective Monday, May 11, riders will need to download the new DCTA On-Demand app that will replace the current Spare Rider app. However, the process to book a trip will remain the same. 

Access Services

Operational hours for Access services will be adjusted to match Connect Bus fixed route schedules.
