Washtenaw: Rail

The Livingston Daily Press & Argus reports that despite not getting federal funding via a TIGER grant, the north-south rail line between Ann Arbor and Howell, known as WALLY, will move ahead. The article quotes Michael Benham of the Ann Arbor Transportation Authority, who’s coordinating the project: “We weren’t really counting on this. This was considered a big bonus if we got it.” [Source]
