An Update with M-1 Rail Project CEO Matt Cullen

Wednesday, June 6, 2012

M-1 Light Rail Project

Detroit’s business community has pledged millions of dollars to build a light rail line along Woodward Avenue, and to help keep it running for the first 10 years. But who will run it after that, and who will pay for it then? Those are two questions that U-S Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood wants answered before committing federal tax dollars to the project. LaHood met with the mayor, the governor, and business leaders representing the M-1 Rail Group. Matt Cullen is the group’s president and C-E-O. He tells WDET’s Pat Batcheller that the region still has some things to accomplish before the Federal Government will sign off on the project.
