The Ypsilanti Transit Center (YTC) is the main bus station in Ypsilanti, Michigan, serving as a hub for Ann Arbor Area Transportation Authority (TheRide) bus services. It serves approximately 101,000 bus arrivals and departures per year, providing the primary service hub for the 8.8% of Ypsilanti residents who commute by transit.[1][2]
As of 2026[update], the Ypsilanti Transit Center is served by 11 TheRide bus routes, connecting to destinations in Ypsilanti, Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti Township, Superior Township, and Pittsfield Township. The Ypsilanti Transit Center is one of two major hubs for TheRide's network, along with the Blake Transit Center in downtown Ann Arbor.[3]
For a long time, the AAATA lacked the staff necessary to staff the information window at the YTC. However, thanks in part to a new property tax approved in August 2022, the YTC got full-time staffing for the information desk beginning on 1 August 2023. These staff sell tokens and passes to riders in addition to answering questions and providing information.[4] The transit center also includes an indoor waiting area and restrooms.[5]
