A2: Transit

A Freep article gives an update on plans to build a light-rail link up Woodward Avenue from Hart Plaza to New Center, called the Regional Area Initial Link, or TRAIL. Reporter John Gallagher writes: “A rail system along Woodward also would give a major boost to an effort to build a rail line from Ann Arbor to New Center. That line, planned by the Southeast Michigan Council of Governments and to be paid for largely with federal money, would feed passengers to and from the TRAIL line, whose existence could help justify the expense of the Ann Arbor-Detroit route.” [Source]
