Add Livonia, Mount Clemens, Wyandotte, Novi and Auburn Hills as destinations and then it'll get closer to a true regional service.
Let me try to bump up interest on this. $12 SHUTTLES FROM DTW TO DOWNTOWN AND SELECT SUBURBS.Quote:

Where does it say a $12 fee? According to the news articles on the The Shuttle Company of America's new shuttle, they, along with others pay a $10 departure fee. A $12 fee doesn't leave much room for making a profit.Quote:

I spoke with Andy, and I don't want to share the inside of his business model. But I've vetted how he's doing it, and I think think that the $10 departure fee will not be an obstacle to the project's success.Quote:

But I think this is will be a huge, huge win for him, Downtown Detroit, and Metro Detroit.
