LBJ/Central station is a DART light rail station in Dallas, Texas that serves the Red Line and Orange Line.[1] During non-peak hours (mornings, evenings, and weekends), it serves as the eastern terminus of the Orange Line.

The station is named for the intersection of Lyndon B. Johnson Freeway (I-635) and North Central Expressway (US 75), which it is adjacent to. The station services the two Dallas campuses of Texas Instruments through employee shuttles.[5] It also services Dallas College Richland Campus through a bus route.[6]

History

Plans for a station servicing Texas Instruments date back to DART's 1983 rail plan.[7] The plan called for the station to be the northern terminus of a starter corridor along North Central Expressway.[8]

Detailed plans for the station were completed in 1997. The plan included a large park-and-ride lot intended for use by commuters on LBJ Freeway, particularly those using LBJ's high-occupancy vehicle lanes, which DART operated at the time.[9]

The station was built atop two baseball fields,[9] which were donated to DART by Texas Instruments.[10] As part of the construction, DART expanded Markville Drive (on the southern side of the station) to meet Floyd Road (now TI Boulevard).[9]

In tribute to Texas Instruments, the station's façade was decorated with circuit boards. The station's canopy was decorated with translucent panels honoring local organizations and individuals, including TI's Jack Kilby.[3][11][12] The station was opened on July 1, 2002 as part of the Red Line's third expansion, which expanded the line from Park Lane to Galatyn Park.[3]
