Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) was named Transit Agency of the Year, earlier this month by Latinos In Transit at their annual leadership summit which was held in Portland, Oregon.
Founded in 2016, Latinos In Transit (LIT) was created to promote the advancement and development of Latinos and other minorities in transportation. Membership is comprised of public and private transportation professionals from across the nation.
“It is an immense honor to represent DART and join the other storied organizations who have been recognized by Latinos In Transit,” said Jeamy Molina, DART’s executive vice president and chief communications officer who accepted the award on behalf of the agency. “To receive this award, especially during Hispanic Heritage Month, is incredibly humbling. I can’t help but to reflect on the incredible strides the DART team has made to ensure our organization is delivering on our mission of creating best-in-class mobility experiences that help people and communities connect and flourish.”
Latinos In Transit’s Transit Agency of the Year award has several selection criteria including an agency’s ability to champion access, diversity equity and inclusion, customer service, sustainability, a strong workforce, multicultural marketing as well as community relations.
