Public Transportation in
Michigan, USA
Michigan
• I live in Michigan, were the automotive industry in
the United States was born.
• Henry Ford founded the Ford Motor Company in
1903.
• There is very little public transportation in Michigan.
Major Cities do have bus systems, but there subway
system like in other large cities. (New York, Chicago,
etc.)
What Should My Community Do?
• I think large cities in Michigan should develop a
train system for mass transit.
• Michigan has lots of expressways, shown in red
on the map, but everyone drives there own car.
• If there were a rail system between Brighton and
Ann Arbor (stars on map) there would be fewer
cars on the road.
• http://www.a2gov.org/Pages/default.aspx
• http://www.brightoncity.org/Home.aspx
Why Brighton to Ann Arbor?
• Ann Arbor is a college town (University of
Michigan) with lots of interesting things to do on
the weekends
• There are a lot of people who work in Ann Arbor
and live in the Brighton Area
• Ann Arbor has a good city bus system to get
around on after you get there.
• People would use it for work during the week and
pleasure on the weekends
• http://semcog.org/Plans-for-the-
Region/Transportation/Transit
Advantages to Commuting
• You would save money on gas and you would
cause less pollution.
• You can get work done on the train.
• Less stress than driving yourself.
• You would not have to worry about traffic.
• You would have to worry about finding a
parking space, which are scarce.
Climate Change Effects
• This train system would:
– Reduce the amount of gasoline that people
consume in Michigan.
– Reduce the emissions of pollutants from
automobiles such as Carbon Dioxide, Carbon
Monoxide, and Nitrogen Oxides.
