Some sort of hybrid or combination of commuter rail and light-rail lines serving the metro area seems like the best option. BRT is kind of a joke unless implemented properly, which is usually in super high-density and fast growing cities that can't build heavy-rail fast enough... i.e. not Detroit, much less anywhere in America.
We should be looking at Minneapolis, Phoenix, Denver, Los Angeles, and others for examples of what we should be doing.
If we connect the major job centers in the metro - Downtown, Southfield, Dearborn, Troy and the Airport it would be a total game changer. This should be the priority.
