light rail into the motor city, Detroit
We've been monitoring this for a while, hoping to be able to report a green light, but things remain in the planning and discussion stage.
Early investigations of mass transit options for the Woodward Avenue corridor from Detroit to Birmingham expanded to include all of Woodward from the Detroit River to Pontiac. The original plan that includes the Oakland County Woodward-area suburbs of Ferndale, Pleasant Ridge, Huntington Woods, Royal Oak, Berkley and Birmingham focused on extending a mass transit line that would end at Woodward and 8 Mile to Birmingham. But a push by state and federal officials to create a truly regional rapid mass transit system for southeast Michigan broadened the focus area to include the entire 27-mile stretch of Woodward.
