Thanks J.J, that is very helpful. However, according to my research, Service
in Ann Arbor, is 7 days a week, and as for Sundays and holidays, there is
what is called night ride service. The night ride service is for after-hours
7 days a week, and the night ride also is in operation on holidays.

No, Grand Rapids has service 7 days a week. Sunday is a bit more limited. I
don't believe anyone does holiday service in Michigan outside of Detroit.
Kalamazoo has no Sundays and service 6 AM to 10 PM Monday-Saturday. 
Lansing and East Lansing are under the same system.


Best regards,
J.J.
