M-1 rail discussion

[SpartanDawg]

So i was perusing through some of the M-1 rail documents available on their website... besides some pretty cool renderings I saw a table where they compared benefits and cons to having it curb-side vs. down the middle

obviously they were considering both and I know that's a major problem among many people who have beef with it being curb-side... anyways just thought i'd show that, plus a couple cool renderings..

also i heard from an article posted a few days ago [[via stacy-witbeck) that construction of the rail itself is set to start next month... who knows anymore but still.. i'm sure we will see it soon enough!


also kind of funny we wont' be seeing this building on the left anymore... set to be demolished to make way for the new wayne state physician group building this summer

obviously these are preliminary renderings but those stations look pretty slick.. hope they have this kind of design



also found what looks like where they think future bus rapid transit routes may go
