Model D Radio: Public weighs in on private transit plan

Frequency. Quality. Reliability. This is what people tell John Hertel, local transit czar and a speaker at our next Speaker Series event, they want. He has been taking public input on the plan crafted by the Regional Transportation Coordinating Council.

The plan, among other things, would put light rail on Woodward between Jefferson and Grand. Hertel talked with concerned residents at as series of meetings, the last of which was at TechTown last week.

This radio program also can be heard on public radio stations across the state, including WDET 101.9 FM in Detroit. It is sponsored in part by Model D and the Michigan State Housing Development Authority.
