UNT Dallas station is a DART light rail station in Dallas, Texas. It is located on the University of North Texas at Dallas campus at 7300 University Hills Road, and serves as the southern terminus of the Blue Line. It was constructed as part of the Southern Oak Cliff extension, and opened on October 24, 2016[1] along with the Camp Wisdom station.[2] DART has hoped that this extension will help spur development south of Ledbetter along the new corridor to UNT Dallas.[3] Bus access, kiss & ride access, general parking, and handicap parking will be provided at both stations of this new extension.
