New van service restores axed Irving bus routes, with Las Colinas loop incoming.

New van service restores axed Irving bus routes, with Las Colinas loop incoming. Published June 30, 2026 at 5:10 AM CDT Irving residents who have been missing bus service along two routes have a new option for getting around town. There's also a new way to move through Las Colinas coming soon. The City of Irving recently launched its Irving Connector van service in partnership with Via, a private microtransit company. The vans run along the previous DART 225 and 255 bus routes, which were discontinued in February. The incoming "Loop at Las Colinas" is also a Via project. Dallas Area Rapid Transit, or DART, officials previously identified the 225 and 255 routes as low performers. The routes were cut alongside other bus routes across the Metroplex, in addition to service reductions for some bus and light rail lines. In February, the Irving City Council voted to rescind an election asking voters to decide whether the city remained in DART. Other DART services have continued in Irving. Irving Connector replaces DART routes 225 and 255 Irving's Citymapper app allows users to see route schedules for the new Irving Connector service and buy tickets, which are valid for two hours after activation. Reservations are not required. Irving Connector vans are ADA-compliant and have space to store mobility aids. The vans each seat up to nine passengers. Service runs daily from 5 a.m. until midnight, with a frequency of every 35-60 minutes. Rides are $1.50 each, regardless of the start and end point. Irving City Council member David Pfaff told KERA the council voted to bring the price down to $1.50 per ride after resident feedback suggesting an earlier proposed price was too high. He noted that the city copied the DART routes, so stops are the same as residents are used to. Via also has partnerships in cities like Plano, Frisco, Denton and Arlington, which means their service is familiar to the Metroplex. "It's not like running out and just getting some brand-new vendor and no one has a track record," Pfaff said. "They have a pretty good track record working with everybody." During city council meetings and public forums in recent months, residents and public transit activists offered comments on how losing routes 225 and 255 has impacted them. They cited a common concern that they wouldn't be able to do basic errands without the bus services. Before the bus routes' discontinuation, Irving resident Kressie Warren said she rode route 225 several times a week to travel to doctor's appointments for her 15-year-old son, whom she described as "medically complex." For the past few months, Warren said she has struggled to get her son to his appointments on time without the bus, which used to connect them to several DART stations. In some cases, this has led to her son going several months without seeing his medical specialists, she said. Instead, Warren says she paid $9 per trip for her and her son to take GoLink, DART's on-demand curb-to-curb service. "It really killed my pockets because I had to pay out of pocket for GoLink to get us to where we needed to go." Although the city's new Connector service seeks to fill the gap of the discontinued bus routes, Warren anticipates it will still put a financial burden on her family. Before, she was able to ride the bus for free through her son's Paratransit card and DART passes provided by her son's school. But the new city service does not currently accept these payment methods, meaning Warren would have to pay $6 per round trip for both her and her son to ride. "We're still in the same boat, pretty much," she said. "Because we have to put out extra money to get on this." Warren is a single mother and is considered low-income, like other families in her area. With the continued financial strain, Warren said she has struggled to get her son in to see his 10 to 15 medical specialists. "It's just still hurting a lot of low-income families, like myself," she said. "I'm trying to get all [my son's] appointments back on schedule, you know, but it's hard to do it with the situation that we've been in." A city flier notes that officials are looking into options to accept DART passes on the Irving Connector. Pfaff said residents relied on each other to get to the grocery store, doctors' appointments and beyond while service was inactive. "It's been citizens just kind of stepping up and taking their friends where they need to go," Pfaff said. "It's been a tough four or five months." Pfaff said there are no plans to raise the $1.50 per ride price. Officials will keep an eye on ridership levels. "We'll continue making sure that our citizens get a good service and it's priced correctly," he said. He noted the projects are funded through the 5% return negotiated with DART. Service to extend into Las Colinas The city is also launching a circulator service with Via in the Las Colinas Urban Center. It goes live July 6. Pfaff said of the incoming Las Colinas service, "It's been talked about for a long time in the city." "This will be a pilot program to really see about the stops, see how many people are using it and really activate that whole urban center where no matter what side of the lake you live on or where the restaurants are, you can get around quickly," he added. According to city materials posted online, the route will follow a figure-eight loop around Las Colinas Boulevard and Lake Carolyn Parkway, with through-access at O'Connor Road and Promenade Parkway. Service runs from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, and rides are free.

NEW YORK, June 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - What's Happening: * Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C., a nationally recognized stockholder rights law firm, announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Via Transportation, Inc. ("Via" or the "Company") (NYSE:VIA) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Via securities in relation to its September 15, 2025 IPO. Investors have until August 10, 2026 to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit. Allegation Details: * According to the complaint, the Offering Documents used to effectuate Via's IPO were false and misleading and omitted to state that, at the time of the IPO, Via's growth had already begun to encounter obstacles because of the Company's declining Platform Annual Run-Rate Revenue and inability to grow in Germany. As these facts emerged after the IPO, the Company's shares fell sharply. * On September 15, 2025, Via conducted its IPO, offering 10,714,285 shares of its common stock to the investing public at a price of $46 per share (the "Offering Price"). * On March 10, 2026, Bleeker Street Research published a report alleging, among other things, that Via's September 2025 IPO "narrative centers on the idea that it is a software platform" but that the Company is actually "a transit services contractor whose revenue is determined almost entirely by driver hours, vehicle hours, and operational labor, not by software licenses or platform usage." The report further alleges "VIA routinely books large implementation fees and up to 18 months of software charges upfront, inflating ARR." * On this news, Via's stock price fell $0.49, or 2.6%, to close at $18.51 per share on March 10, 2026, thereby injuring investors. Further, the stock closed down 59.7% from its IPO price of $46 per share. Next Steps: * If you purchased or otherwise acquired Via shares and suffered a loss, are a long-term stockholder, have information, would like to learn more about these claims, or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Brandon Walker or Melissa Fortunato by email at [email protected], telephone at (212) 355-4648, or by filling out this contact form.

VIA investors have opportunity to lead Via Transportation, Inc. securities fraud lawsuit with the Schall Law Firm.

VIA investors have opportunity to lead Via Transportation, Inc. securities fraud lawsuit with the Schall Law Firm. Business Wire 11-Jun-2026 9:11 PM The Schall Law Firm, a national shareholder rights litigation firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit against Via Transportation, Inc. ("Via" or "the Company") (NYSE: VIA) for violations of the federal securities laws. Investors who purchased the Company's securities pursuant and/or traceable to the Company's September 15, 2025, initial public offering ("IPO") are encouraged to contact the firm before August 10, 2026. Market Chameleon also encourage you to contact Brian Schall of the Schall Law Firm, 2049 Century Park East, Suite 2460, Los Angeles, CA 90067, at 310-301-3335, to discuss your rights free of charge. You can also reach Market Chameleon through the firm's website at www.schallfirm.com, or by email at [email protected]. The class, in this case, has not yet been certified, and until certification occurs, you are not represented by an attorney. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member. According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Via touted its business as enjoying durable revenue growth as part of its "land and expand" strategy, emphasizing its German operations in particular. In fact, the Company was suffering from growth obstacles, such as adding customers faster than they were generating revenue, causing its Annual Run-Rat Revenue ("ARR") to decline. Despite its earlier claims, the Company revealed on May 12, 2026, that regulatory pressures in Germany were hampering its growth. Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the IPO period. When the market learned the truth about Via, investors suffered damages. The Schall Law Firm represents investors around the world and specializes in securities class action lawsuits and shareholder rights litigation.
