As construction continues on the new State Fair Transit Center in the area of Woodward Avenue and Eight Mile Road, the current transit hub has been moved approximately 500 feet north on Woodward Avenue to an existing parking lot. Bus shelters and directional signage will be added to the area for passenger layovers and for ease of navigation. DDOT routes impacted by the construction are 4-Woodward, 12-Conant, 17-Eight Mile, 30-Livernois, and 54-Wyoming.
The location change will not affect service. Riders transferring buses will still be able to complete their transfers as normal. Riders who walk or take other transportation will use the new location, which is about a two-minute walk north on Woodward.
