U. of Mich. puts plans for $38.5M transportation center on hold

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — The University of Michigan put its $38.5 million transportation facility project on hold because of opposition from neighbors, MLive reports.

In a letter to residents, university President Mark Schlissel acknowledged the university should have been more thoughtful and responsive when considering a development such as the $38.5 million center, which was proposed to be built next to a residential area.

The facility would house the university's fleet of 60 buses and serve as a full-service maintenance center for at least 1,000 vehicles. For the full story, click here.
