Dallas Area Rapid Transit has selected Jenny Barket as its new chief of staff, effective May 15.
Barket will serve as a senior adviser to DART President and CEO Nadine Lee. She will focus on strategic, tactical and operational initiatives, DART officials said in a press release.
Previously, Barket was a director at WSP USA, where she was a strategic adviser for nationwide projects, including the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority’s BART – Silicon Valley Phase II Extension, the Central Florida Commuter Rail Commission SunRail Transition Study and the New Jersey Transit Hudson-Bergen Light Rail Extension.
