If it succeeds, it doesn't automatically mean it's a "solution" to something as geographically varied, respectively massive, and fiscally complicated and regimented as subsidized public transit.

If it succeeds, it does mean it succeeded in the conditions of Detroit, as mass-transit is something so delicate it inherently must be optimized for the city in which it operates. That said, I do absolutely wish them luck living in a city with what I consider absolutely horrible public transit[1]

[1] This is subjective, highly of course. And given the population boom taking place in Austin, Texas it's somewhat hard to fault CapMetro entirely for the woes of riding the bus. I will say though many will find themselves in agreement living here seeing CapMetro time and time again implement projects that utterly fail because they made no sense to begin with. Yep, I'm looking right at you Red line.
