Credit Solutions Extends DART Partnership, Gives Employees Free Bus & Train Passes
RICHARDSON, Texas-(Business Wire)-January 30, 2009 - DFW travelers spend 58 hours annually in traffic delays, and 16.5% brave daily commutes longer than 45 minutes.1 That’s in part why Credit Solutions has renewed its partnership with DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit), providing bus and light rail passes at no cost to its employees for a second year in a row.
Last year, 40% of Credit Solutions' Richardson headquarters campus claimed their free DART pass. The company has grown to over 900 employees and plans continued expansion throughout 2009.
"We are responding to a need our employees have expressed so that they may reach their fullest potential and enjoy improved quality of life," says a company spokesperson. "Taking care of employees has always been a core company philosophy."
Employees who take advantage of this program can use the free passes for unlimited riding on local and premium (express) bus service routes, the DART light rail, DART trolley buses, and all zones of the Trinity Railway Express service.
The benefits of the public transportation have never been greater. Thanks to DART, employees can save money on transportation, avoid traffic and do their part for clean air. Dallas is spending $900 million through 2018 to extend the DART rail system into North Texas. In fact, Texas leads the nation in developing and implementing innovative programs that reduce air pollution and improve air quality.2
