Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport station is a transit station located at the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport in Irving, Texas. It is planned for service on the DART Orange Line light rail service, and the TEX Rail and DART Cotton Belt commuter rail lines.
The light rail station opened on August 18, 2014, and it serves as the northwestern terminus of the Orange Line. It is located between Terminals A and B. The station is easily accessible from the lower level of Terminal A near A10.
FWTA (the T) is currently planning to construct TEX Rail from T&P Station in Fort Worth to DFW Airport Station in Grapevine. A key component is this station, which will provide transfers to the DART Cotton Belt Line and the DART Orange Line. DFW Airport, after announcements that TEX Rail was green-lit for construction, has said that they will provide $40 million to build this station, which would leave the FWTA to build the DFW North station, the only other TEX Rail station on airport property.
