FYI,

Beginning October 1, the Ann Arbor Transportation Authority (AATA) will modify its Route 36 – Wolverine Tower Shuttle to improve performance and to connect with the new Michigan Flyer service to Detroit Metropolitan Airport scheduled to begin the same day.

According to AATA Manager of Service Development Chris White, the route will be revised south of the State Street Park & Ride Lot.

“Northbound service on State Street between Eisenhower Parkway and Oakbrook Street will be discontinued, with the modified route traveling on Boardwalk and Oakbrook streets,” White said.

Three new bus stops will be added, two on Boardwalk and one on Oakbrook. Two bus stops will be eliminated on State Street north of Eisenhower. One bus stop will be relocated from the south side of Wolverine Tower to the north side. Stops on State, Eisenhower Parkway and the southeast corner of Wolverine Tower will no longer be served.

The Michigan Flyer service will board at the Four Points Sheraton hotel. Schedules, tickets and parking permits for the service are available at 888.643.5937.
