The Woodward Avenue Streetcar (M-1 Rail) in Detroit began construction at 12:01 AM this morning. I suspect we'll see some kind of article on this later in the morning. Because it will also include a full reconstruction of Woodward, including two bridges over I-75 and I-94, it won't be open for two years.

Downtown - Grand Circus Park


M-1 Rail

Midtown - Warren


M-1 Rail

New Center - Amtrak


M-1 Rail

The Midtown rendering's a bit deceptive, as this portion of the line (a third) will be on-wire. The rest, though, will be offwire.

EDIT: July 28, 2014
