ANN ARBOR, MI – The Ann Arbor Area Transportation Authority (TheRide) is making minor routing adjustments starting Sunday, January 25, 2026. The service updates include revisions to route 62. The adjustments are being made to improve customer experience and operational efficiency.
The service updates are:
- Route 62:
- Remove service from Wolverine Tower parking lots. Buses will stay on State St. to serve a stop south of the Wolverine Tower entrance drive.
Additionally, effective January 1, 2026, TheRide is no longer operating FlexRide West in Pittsfield Township, due to a contract change with Pittsfield Township. Curb-to-curb service in the Township is now being managed through People’s Express. TheRide's Fixed-Route and A-Ride service continue to service Pittsfield Township without change. FlexRide East and FlexRide Late Night and Holiday service continue to operate. For broader questions or concerns, contact Pittsfield Township at 734-822-3135.
TheRide's route information is available in many formats. RideGuides outline helpful riding information, along with service maps and route schedules and are available on buses, at our transit centers, and at select community locations in our service area. In addition, TheRide's Rider Tools allow customers to stay up to date on estimated arrival times, detours, and other service-related alerts along a route or at a specific bus stop. Each bus stop also has a sign regarding TheRide's Text My Bus feature, which allows riders to text to find out when their bus will arrive at their stop. In addition, customers can call TheRide’s route information line at 734-996-0400 for assistance on any service questions they may have.
