  • Can Public Transit Revitalize Detroit? the Qline and the People Mover”
    “Can Public Transit Revitalize Detroit? The QLine and the People Mover” John B. Sutcliffe, Sarah Cipkar and Geoffrey Alchin Department of Political Science, University of Windsor Windsor, Ontario, N9B 3P4 Email: [email protected] Paper prepared for presentation at the Canadian Political Science Association Annual Conference, Vancouver, BC. June 2019. This is a working draft. Please do not cite without permission. 1 “Can Public Transit Revitalize Detroit? The QLine and the People Mover" Introduction On May 12, 2017 a new streetcar – the QLine – began operating in Detroit, running along a 3.3- mile (6.6-mile return) route on Woodward Avenue, one of the central north-south roads in the city. This project is one example of the return to prominence of streetcars in the (re)development of American cities. Having fallen into disuse and abandonment in hundreds of American cities during the early part of the 20th century, this form of public transit has returned in many cities including, for example, Dallas, Cincinnati, Kansas City, and Portland. As streetcar services have returned to prominence, so too has the debate about their utility as a form of public transit, the function they serve in a city, and who they serve (Brown 2013; Culver 2017). These debates are evident in the case of Detroit. Proponents of the QLine – most prominently the individuals and organizations that advocated for its creation and provided the majority of the start-up capital – have praised the streetcar for acting as a spur to development, for being a forward-thinking transit system and for acting as a first step towards a comprehensive regional transit system in Metro Detroit (see M-1 Rail 2018).

  • Light Rail Transit (LRT)
    Transit Strategies Light Rail Transit (LRT) Light rail transit (LRT) is electrified rail service that operates in urban environments in completely exclusive rights‐of‐way, in exclusive lanes on roadways, and in some cases in mixed traffic. Most often, it uses one to three car trains and serves high volume corridors at higher speeds than local bus and streetcar service. Design and operational elements of LRT include level boarding, off‐board fare payment, and traffic signal priority. Stations are typically spaced farther apart than those of local transit services and are usually situated where there are higher population and employment densities. MAX Light Rail (Portland, OR) The T Light Rail (Pittsburgh, PA) Characteristics of LRT Service LRT is popular with passengers for a number of reasons, the most important of which are that service is fast, frequent, direct, and operates from early morning to late night. These attributes make service more convenient—much more convenient than regular bus service—and more competitive with travel by automobile. Characteristics of LRT service include: . Frequent service, typically every 10 minutes or better . Long spans of service, often 18 hours a day or more . Direct service along major corridors . Fast service Keys reasons that service is fast are the use of exclusive rights‐of‐way—exclusive lanes in the medians of roadways, in former rail rights‐of‐way, and in subways—and that stations are spaced further apart than with bus service, typically every half mile (although stations are often spaced more closely within downtown areas). Rhode Island Transit Master Plan | 1 Differences between LRT and Streetcar Light rail and streetcar service are often confused, largely because they share many similarities.
