Transportation Riders United is a small nonprofit based in Detroit that focuses on improving public transit across the region. Established in 1999, the organization educates, advocates, and mobilizes communities to expand transit options and affordable mobility in metro Detroit.

In the public policy arena, TRU seeks to influence transit policy and funding decisions affecting residents’ ability to access essential services. In early 2026, TRU participated in the State of Transit discussions and hosted its own annual State of Transit event at Marygrove Conservatory, signaling ongoing engagement with policymakers and the public. The group serves metro Detroit and collaborates with partners to broaden access to affordable mobility options beyond conventional bus service.
