This project had major set-backs due to too many agencies being involved in the project. Not only is Troy involved, but Birmingham, Oakland County, SMART, Amtrak, US DOT, MDOT......

Grand Sakwa had an agreement that they would be happy to donate the land if the transit center was built by a certain date. That date came and went even before a shovel was put in the ground.

Its a real shame as the current train station in Birmingham is fully inadequate and the newer one would serve not only Birmingham, but be walkable to the Grand Sakwa development that included housing and shopping. A huge step in this region toward true Transit Orientated Design [[TOD).
