SEMCOG looks for input on transit plan

Most of the time a local government body wants public input about transportation and centers of mass transit. That's not necessarily so with the Southeast Michigan Council of Government's latest string of transportation meetings.

SEMCOG will host public meetings in September (and one in October) for its Direction2035 plan, the region's next long-range transportation plan. The idea is to figure out in which type of transportation infrastructure to invest.

"It's not just public transit. It's the whole gamut of things," says Carmine Palombo, director of transportation for SEMCOG.

A copy of the plan can be seen here.

The meetings will be held on Sept. 23 at 9:30 a.m. and Sept. 25 at 1 p.m. in SEMCOG's offices, 535 Griswold, Suite 300 in Detroit. Another meeting will be held Oct. 22 at 4:30 p.m. at the ConCorde Inn, 44315 Gratiot in Clinton Township.

For information, send an email to Direction2035@semcog.org or call (313) 324-3362 or send a letter to SEMCOG, Attn: Information Center, 535 Griswold, Suite 300, Detroit, MI 48226.
