Our Mission

Detroiters have the highest car insurance payments and steepest barriers to car ownership in the country. So why does Detroit continue to have the lowest funded public transit system of any major US city? For too many of us, this underfunded and unreliable transit system means missed work, lost jobs, skipped medical care, or even being forced to leave the city. While many disabled residents use ParaTransit, still many of of us heavily rely on the fixed-route system. The demand has been there, lets meet the need.

 

Contact city officials today to Double DDOT's budget!
