I have Para transit service here. Paratransit in the Detroit area is called
Metro Lift which operates very late hours including on weekends. No service
like that outside Detroit.

Teri, do you know if AATA still serves Ypsilanti?  I lived on Tyler Road in
Ypsilanti Township and a bus came down that road, 25 years ago.

Ann Arbor has service Monday through Friday until 10:45. Most busses run
every half hour. On Saturday, busses end at 6:30. Busses run every half hour
or hour. On Sunday, busses only run once an hour and end at 6:30. Busses are
free if you have a green card. This is a card that makes you eligible for
paratransit service. There is also paratransit service. It ends the same
time as the busses. You must live in the city limits of Ann Arbor. If you
schedule a ride 24 hours in advance, the ride is $3.00. If you schedule it
same day, the ride is $4.00. This is a shared ride system, so you want to
ask for a ride 45 minutes before you need to be anywhere. You are
transported in cabs and small busses. Rides are available only in the city
limits, so you have to live in the city limits and be careful of this. We
also have a local chapter of the National Federation of the Blind here. I
hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Terri Wilcox
