Heart of Midtown threatened by widening of I-94 [in Detroit]

Opinion: Heart of Midtown threatened by widening of I-94.

I read this headline to my students, who started laughing.

Detroit, yes Detroit, Michigan is looking to widen a major highway, because presumably, it is the lack of highway access that is constraining economic growth. Obviously these are different agencies doing the planning, but in an era of peak travel nationally, what must the travel demand statistics look like in a declining city like Detroit.

Yet another example of zombie transportation.
