The busiest travel day of the year, as Amtrak Midwest trains and intercity buses sell out en masse, is a great time to read @detroittransit.org's report on the state of cross-state transit in Michigan 🚆

Fantastic and necessary writeup on Amtrak Midwest.

I know better than most how painful it is to publish a sharp critique when you'd be defending transit on any other day. But when failures are this severe, spotlighting them is the right thing to do.

Tomorrow's annual parade detour in Pontiac will be a little more circuitous than usual as we've temporarily lost Orchard Lake/Auburn across the loop due to the Phoenix Center demolition. All buses in all directions, including FAST 462, will stop on NB Perry past Pike 5:00a-4:30p.

this happened AGAIN
If I'm reading all these alerts correctly: Wolverine 352 had a blowout, 364 had to stop and donate an engine to get it rolling again, 355 got stuck on the wrong side of 352 for so long the crew timed out, and 354 was a victim of the resulting logjam

Bad night on Amtrak Midwest

Seeing the Miller Road Flix stop show up in search results as "Flint Bus Center" with MTA's station photo and contact info got me so incensed I just posted my first ever review on Google Maps. Intercity trip planning in this state is already confusing enough, don't get me started

Everyone is short on time this time of year. As you drive around this holiday season please remember that ppl on bicycles are humans. We’re not trying to be in your way or slow you down. Chill and give us a little extra room when you see us. It’s scary out here. Show us some love. Happy holidays.

Btw Detroit, this is your customary reminder that Cedarland is open from 9a-9p on Thanksgiving if you need a meal and don’t wanna cook.

For my fellow covid cautious girlies, they have a drive thru.

Tip nicely bc it is a holiday!

i can hear it. i feel... a disturbance
Guarantee some variant of this announcement is about to be made: "We are now arriving at the East Lansing station stop, this is a SOLD OUT TRAIN, we have OVER 200 PEOPLE BOARDING at this station, if we see your bag in an empty seat we will personally catapult you into the sun"

Detours start at 9AM. If you're riding FAST, Transit will show you what's going on. For DDOT, see the Route Updates page: detroitmi.gov/departments/...

In short, no service at stops south of the Boulevard. FAST is going express down the Lodge while DDOT is making local stops on Cass.

Tomorrow does not look like a beautiful day for a bike ride but if anyone feels like braving wind, rain, and possibly snow, it's your chance to see the parade floats early. Woodward is car-free after 9am 🚴‍♂️

Visual detours and trip modifications are by far the best feature of Transit Royale. Takes an incredible amount of data processing under the hood to make it all work.

Happy Lagniappe 🎄
