A Michigan express route does not exist [[until now). The 125 route pales in comparison to anything like this and is a joke of any airport to downtown service.

This is all good. I'm happy to see SMART take up the challenge of providing decent, frequent, reasonably fast access to downtown Detroit from distant points. I think this will prove to be a popular service, and will give people something to think about the next time a vote on support for the RTA comes up. The sales pitch then will be, the SMART service, but with some amenities to make it even faster.
