My visitors guide to Wayne State University Area revision 6-9-2015
Notes from Wesley Arnold wesleyarnold@
unpaid volunteer Friend of The Easiest Language
How to get to Wayne State University area from Detroit Metro Airport
on the cheap. Takes about 2 hours by buses costs about $2.50 From
North Airport Terminal take 125 SMART bus Northbound to Griswold
& Congress streets takes 1 hour and 22 minutes has 123 stops,
walk 1 minute to Larned get on 610 Bus Southbound 11 minutes
get off at Woodward and Warren This is location for WSU.
Is best to walk if distance short. Or Rent a car but parking can be a problem at times
and cause a walk of several blocks. Buses are problematic and not very frequent. DOT
Bus Fare is $1.50 exact change or card. Seniors and disabled 50?. Transfer to second
route 25?. Department of Transportation 888 336 8287 or 313 933 1300
for bus routes and times. Buses take exact change or
give change on bus card for future use.
North of 8 mile also check South Michigan Transp SMART BUSES FARE $2.00 Seniors 50?
Disabled show medicare card transfer is 10? senior or disabled Cabs are not cheap.
If several people carpool you can get around better and at least expense. If renting a car
there is free and metered parking in many areas 25? for 15 minutes most say limit is
two hours. Don't know if enforced, probably not. Arrival at Train station is on
Woodward Ave. One mile south on Woodward to WSU then east to Ghafari Hall. Or
almost 4,000 feet to the International Institute. Woodward Bus to Kirby for International
Institute (within 300 feet to east) or exit bus at Kirby and walk across campus 1300 feet
west to Ghafari Hall. First check in advance to see if me or others can give you a ride. I
live 10 miles away.
Woodward is dividing line between East and West

PARKING can be a nightmare Good News choices are in general order of cost
For attendees at International Institute sometimes guests can park free in their small lot next to their
building but once that lot is full the next best choice is on the side streets which are either free or
metered. There are lots of free spaces within 3 short blocks.
Parking meters spaces are numerous. Parking is 25? for 15 minutes alleged limit is two hours (I do not
know if this is enforced) and you may have to buy a card at one of several roadside kiosks in area to
pay. Parking is free from 10PM until 7AM but run out and pay otherwise it is a $45 ticket. One
resident told me the meter maid was the only functioning part of the Detroit Police department.
Parking is free Sundays at all meters on all public streets. There are two handicapped parking
spaces across from International Institute which appear to be free as there is no meter.
Here is a parking price finder
The Red no parking symbol means not open 8-10 Saturday and Sunday
Detroit Public Library sometimes offers free parking for patrons on Saturday. Entrance is on
South side of the Big Detroit Public library. Putnam, between Cass Ave. and Woodward Ave. You have
to go into the library and sign in. You have to exit and sign out before library closes. Saturday 10 a.m.
- 6 p.m. They don't check your whereabouts in between. Only 2 blocks from the International Institute.
You can park at Wayne State University lots FOR $7-10 PER DAY but have to pay that price each
time you enter with a car, except by special permit.
