Like many of you, I am very interested in seeing the Ann Arbor to Detroit Commuter Rail project come to fruition.  There are tens of thousands of people who commute from Wayne County to Washtenaw County every day.  These folks have no other alternative but to drive.  Commuter rail from Ann Arbor to Detroit would be a great way to offer stressed-out commuters another option and also has potential for great economic benefits for the region.

As I said, I’m not the only one who wants this to happen.  Check out this blog post from Crain’s about an Ann Arborite who would love to commute to his job in Detroit via train.

Finally, if you’d like an update on the progress for the A2-Detroit Commuter Rail, click here. It’s a PDF report from SEMCOG.
