DASH service started operating in the Wilshire Center area March 15. Unlike the Smart Shuttle buses, DASH routes and schedules are fixed. Buses run every 30 minutes along the area bounded by Vermont and Western avenues and Third and Ninth streets.

DASH service runs from 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. during the week, and from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Saturday. The fare is 25 cents per ride. MTA and senior passes are accepted.

The DASH routes are designed to serve the Metro Rail Red Line stations at Wilshire and Vermont and Wilshire and Western. They have also been planned to accommodate the needs of the neighborhood, particularly those of the elderly and the disabled. Says Phil Aker, supervising transportation planner of LADOT, "DASH routes are designed to connect community activity points.

DASH buses pick up passengers only at designated DASH stops. A timetable for the Wilshire Center DASH buses is available through LADOT. Call 213-808-2273.
