Reliable Transportation
WHY WE ARE DOING IT
We must create a transit system that is more accessible and reliable — one that gets Detroiters to work, school, and their daily life without delay or disrespect. My administration will upgrade Detroit’s transportation system by expanding service hours, prioritizing reliability & frequency, and deeply and seriously pursuing regional transit with partners.
WHAT WE WILL DO
We will ensure that residents of the Motor City can rely on transportation that efficiently meets their mobility needs with dignity and reliability by:
Raising driver pay
Exploring Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) and expanding the M1 rail to improve speed and further service
Working to implement DDOT Reimagined before 2030, prioritizing 10-minute frequency on key routes
FIRST 100 DAYS:
LAUNCH REGIONAL TRANSIT WORK GROUP
WHY IT'S IMPORTANT
Creating a regional work group with defined deliverables, comprised of Mayors, Wayne County leadership, Congressional representation, and local advocates. This will allow us to intentionally develop a plan to transform Detroit into the regional hub it should be by exploring how we can develop regional cross-county rail and transit, while also gathering best practices to improve local Detroit!
