The Great Lakes

Getting around

    Downtown, the People Mover elevated railway loops around thirteen art-adorned stations (Mon– Thurs 6:30am– midnight, Fri 6:30am–2am, Sat 9am–2am, Sun noon– midnight; 50¢). Further out, public transportation is just about adequate. SMART serves the entire metro region, while DDOT buses ($1.50; 313/933-1300, www.detroitmi.gov/ddot ) run a patchier inner-city service. Getting around in the Motor City, however, remains geared firmly toward the car.
