📰About DISD Transportation Facility

The DISD Transportation Facility in Denton is a new 20,848 sq ft structure located at 5080 Mills Rd. The project, registered with TDLR in February 2025, has passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in August 2026, confirming that construction is complete. This facility is a dedicated transportation hub for the Denton Independent School District, replacing older infrastructure with a modern, purpose-built space.

Owned by Denton ISD, the project carries an estimated cost of $13,000,000. This figure places the project in the top quarter of estimated costs for new construction filings in Denton County over the last two years, where the median cost for similar projects was $900,000. The facility’s size of 20,848 sq ft is also significantly larger than the county median of 8,040 sq ft for new construction, reflecting the specialized nature of a district transportation center.

Design and Construction Details

VLK Architects, Inc. served as the design firm of record for this project. The scope of work included the new transportation facility itself along with associated public improvements. The scheduled build window was 452 days, which is longer than the county median of 219 days for similar new construction projects. This extended timeline likely reflects the complexity of coordinating new construction with public infrastructure upgrades.

The registered accessibility specialist for the project was Bonita L Anderson. The project utilized public funds and is situated on public land. Construction began in March 2025, following the completion of plan review in February 2025. The final inspection was passed in August 2026, bringing the TDLR status to Inspection Complete.

Denton ISD has several other large-scale projects registered with TDLR, including the Comprehensive High School No. 5 in Crossroads and the Riney Rd. Elementary School in Denton. The area surrounding the new facility includes existing businesses such as the Denton ISD Transportation Center and the Ryan Raider Band and Colorguard. The ZIP code 76208 has a population of about 27,186 and a median household income of $90,833 according to U.S. Census estimates.
