What if your daily commute felt like a walk in a gallery? In this episode of Mobility in Motion we explore the new Silver Line and beyond to see how public art transforms into transit. From comic book bursts in Plano to glowing olive leaves in Addison, artists bring color, story and spirit to everyday stations, turning the ordinary into something unforgettable.

Black ice, mechanical failures, and freezing temps can bring a city to a standstill—but not DART. In this episode of Mobility in Motion, we take you inside the Operations Control Center, where quick-thinking crews work around the clock to keep buses and trains moving, and to prepare the system for a future shaped by climate change.
