Capitol Park Transit Center, which is bordered by Michigan Avenue, Griswold, Shelby and Grand River, is located within walking distance of Cadillac Square. The center will include covered bus shelters, additional lighting, new security cameras and an information and sales center.
The relocation to the Capitol Park facility coincides with the department's long-range comprehensive plan, The Detroit Downtown Transportation Vision. The main components of the plan include:
* A new Times Square Bus Terminal to replace Cadillac Square.
* An enhanced People Mover.
* New shuttle service using rubber-tired trolleys fueled by compressed natural gas.
* Preferred parking at structures adjacent to People Mover stations.
Surrounded by General Motors Corp. global headquarters at the Renaissance Center, the Detroit Lions and Detroit Tigers sports stadia and three new casinos, Campus Martius will offer five city blocks of office space, hotels, restaurants, covered parking, retail and entertainment space. A 2-acre community park will also be located at the site.
