Thanks for the update, MSUguy. This sounds promising, and I'm glad to see some kind of common sense compromise, here. Sounds like they are hoping that this construction authority actually forms the very beginnings of the regional system as a whole, a kind of placeholder that can interact with the feds while a regional system is being cobbled together over the coming years. I kind of wish things would come together faster, because I'm kind of wary of continuing to fragment the system. Now, you'll have DDOT, SMART, the Detroit Transportation Corporation, and the new local/municipal authority that will only oversee the Woodward line, when we should probably be merging these or winding down some of these departments and authorities in conjunction with forming a regional authority.
