More Bikes and Trains for Detroit

Speaker: John Hertel and Scott Clein
Russell Industrial Center
October 21, 2008  5 p.m.
Sign up here for the Model D Speaker Series at 5 p.m., Tuesday, Oct. 21 at the Russell Industrial Center. The event is free but space is limited so you must pre-register.

Sign in starts at 5 p.m. The hour-long presenatations start at 5:30 p.m, and networking and a reception will follow.

Spekers are John Hetel and Scott Clein. The topic is the Regional Transportation Coordinating Council's recently released transit plan for Southeastern Michigan and a non-motorized plan that calls for more than 400 miles of bike lanes in Detroit.

Directions: The complex is at 1600 Clay Street in Detroit, just east of I-75, north of East Grand Boulevard. Enter off of Clay and park in the lot in the center of the complex. For a map, go here. Enter the Building One door marked 1604 Clay (with a blue person sculpture outside of it), and take the elevator to the fifth floor. Follow the signs to the theater.

The event is sponsored by the Michigan State Housing Development Authority, Wayne County, the Fusion group of the Detroit Regional Chamber, and Model D, and is graciously being hosted by the Boydell Group and the Russell Industrial Center. And also a big thanks to Paxahau, which is handling the sound.
