The city of Detroit recently launched two new transit services that use autonomous shuttles. One targets older adults and people with disabilities, providing access to over 100 locations around the city; the other loops from Corktown through downtown to the East Jefferson Riverfront and is open to the general public. Learn more about these services from Tim Slusser, Detroit's chief of mobility innovation.

Fellow MASSTrans Members,

We are pleased to extend an invitation to you for the upcoming MASSTrans Annual Meeting on Thursday, September 7, 2023, at 11:00 AM. Whether you are a regular attendee or this will be your first meeting, your participation is not only welcomed but encouraged.

The meeting offers an opportunity to reflect on what we, as a collective group, have accomplished over the past year and to strategize for the forthcoming year. We will commence the meeting at 11:00 AM and enjoy a fully catered lunch beginning around 12:15 PM.

What sets MASSTrans apart from other associations in the state is our unity as a group of public transits, all faced with similar challenges and committed to finding shared solutions. We continuously strive to impact both individual and greater goods through collaboration, advocacy, and training on matters significant to you. Your voice is integral to our mission, and your presence helps ensure that the association remains aligned with its core values and goals.

This year's annual meeting will take place at the Stahl Event Barn in McBain, Michigan (9421 S. Lucas Rd, McBain, MI 49657). Please note that the facility is an old barn without heating or air conditioning, so dress accordingly for comfort. (Even in hot weather, the venue tends to remain cool.)
