IN RE: HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 7403 CALLING FOR IMMEDIATE STOPPAGE . OF CONSTRUCTION ON THE DETROIT
PEOPLE MOVER AND DIRECTING THE PROPER AUTHORITIES TO COMMENCE THE DEMOLITION OF THE PEOPLE MOVER
(Support)
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen;
WHEREAS virtually all aspects of the Detroit People Mover, friar] its initial consideration
to its financing and construction, have been surrounded by controversy and major problems and the
entire issue of this ele1tated rail line has been plagued with ineptitude; and
WHEREAS, already, the system has experienced tremendous cost overruns, which have pushed
the cost to at least $210 million for a 2.9-mile automated rail line and at a cost of $13,746 per
foot, this project is an astounding misuse of badly 'needed transportation funds; and
WHEREAS this escalation on a project originally to have cost $89 million has also created
great uncertainty as to what the fare and ridership would be for its use. . Original estimates of
the daily ridership for the People Mover have already been scaled down dramatically from 70,000
riders to 50,000, with the latest projections of a federal audit estimating 40,000 riders; and
WHEREAS it also seems clear that the cost of operation for this project would entail
similar escalations in price. Given the history of transportation services in the metropolitan
area, as well as the unforeseen factors presented by the completely new technology of the People
Mover, it would seem likely that the"$7,3 Million per year operating expense for the People Mover
would prove to be far short of actual operating costs; and
WHEREAS the funding for the People Mover has involved the transfer of money from several
IF

sources, at the direct expense of citizens and local units of government who have experienced
decreased overall transportation services 65 a. result of the commuter roil project. In effect,
a considerable disproportion of the transportation services for the SEMTA area have, been c.,qn-
trated in the very limited downtown Detroit area of the People. Mover; and
WHEREAS, most recently, it has become apparent that the quality of construction w;:iy
jeopardize the safety of the entire venture. Even though construction is stili underway, thirty-two
beams have been replaced, with another eighty-nine beams having some type of flaw. CraLks in con-
crete, combined with sections of the elevated rail which have actually fallen, have. seriously
threatened the public's safety and are undoubtedly further eroding potential ridership; and
WHEREAS, whiie each of these problems could be cont.idered enough to justify serious
questioning of the wisdom of continuing this project, the cumulative impact of the overruns in
cost of construction, poor quality . of work, documented problems in safety, and the projected cost
of operation makes it abundantly clear that the Detroit People Mover is a project which can no longer
be permitted to drain the resources of the people of Michigan.
• NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland Count ,/ Board of Commissioners shares the
concerns about the Detroit People Mover as described in the foregoing excerpts from House Concurrent
Resolution #403 and takes a position supporting HER 403.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be sent to the state legislators
from Oakland County.
