Kudos to @CatchTheRide for its $25M FTA grant to replace its aging fleet with new clean energy buses & infrastructure. Acting Administrator @veevanterpool highlighted how FTA’s support will enable TheRide to ride toward a fully electric future! #busmonth https://t.co/LCEfC9CUlc

What do you think about regional park n ride for the Ann Arbor area? Our long-range plan has ideas...

Park-and-ride commuting may be way of life for 10,000 Ann Arbor workers in the future https://t.co/flwwGhNpW4

Pay attention @smart_movesus, @rideddot, @RTAmichigan, @DetroitTransit, & @SEMCOG.
Protected transit and bike lanes throughout major corridors, and existing bus routes where practical, will benefit communities and Metro Detroit & Ann Arbor.

So last week my daughter and I went on a adventure. We went from Downtown Detroit to Ann Arbor using only transit. Thanks to @RideDDOT and @RTAmichigan for getting us there safely. Review of the D2A2 coming soon.

[Jason Morgan @JasonMorganMI]

Tonight we voted for a Michigan budget that in invests an additional $60 million in local buses throughout our state!

My @CatchTheRide bus on my desk has been great inspiration throughout the process! 🚌

[Matt Carpenter @vortex42]

@mangojuice_22 Very nice. Well done.

[Matt Carpenter @vortex42]

Highway tolls could raise $1B to fix Michigan roads, study finds. Is it time? https://t.co/GaZ9fq6tpH via @BridgeMichigan

[Jesse Miller @jesseofthelakes]

The support of @RepDebDingell plus the support of our community via the millage vote has changed this from a dream into a plan. @CatchTheRide #ypsi
