Workforce Transit Solutions

Through public-private partnerships, Hillwood is driving mobility innovation and transit solutions for AllianceTexas companies and its workforce. Greater connectivity comes from infrastructure planning and roadway improvement projects, allowing for greater reach – both reducing commute time and making the Alliance corridor accessible to more people in less time. To the north and south, expanded express lanes and transportation options are provided by Trinity Metro and Denton County Transit Authority (DCTA). Both also offer additional on-demand, final-mile options, providing needed flexibility and reliability.

Future plans include a luxury, all-electric bus fleet utilizing the recently completed North Tarrant Express (NTE) TEXpress lanes along I-35W with a guaranteed arrival time, or the ride is free in addition to more convenient Park & Ride locations and amenities within the Alliance corridor.

Carpooling programs powered by Commute with Enterprise offer an alternative to mass transit with ample benefits for both the employee and employer. Trinity Metro and DCTA will work with employers directly on tailored options that fit their workforce needs.

DAILY COMMUTE SOLUTIONS

The Alliance corridor is serviced by three bus routes connecting Fort Worth to the south and Denton to the north.

Operated by Trinity Metro: Route 63X (North Park & Ride Express) runs between Downtown Fort Worth and AllianceTexas on weekdays 5:15am to 9:15pm, every 30 minutes, and Route 16 (Alliance Town Center/Mercantile Center Station).

Operated by Denton County Transit Authority (DCTA): North Texas Xpress runs between downtown Denton and AllianceTexas on weekdays, 6:00am to 6:00pm.
