New DDOT bus signs now more informative

Detroit Department of Transportation has unveiled new signage that will give bus riders what they so desperately need -- more information.

Excerpt:

Over the next four months, Detroiters will see new, larger, color-coded city bus signs that contain route information installed throughout the city, a Detroit Department of Transportation official announced today.

The new signs are 50% larger and have the route number, the name, a color relative to the route and the phone number to the DDOT scheduling information center.

Passengers will be able to call the number from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and talk with a customer service representative or call outside the hours and receive automated route information.

The first sign was installed today on southbound Woodward north of the Woodlawn Cemetery entrance.
