Ann Arbor

By taxi

Ann Arbor has several reliable 24-hour taxicab companies. Note that you can't hail a cab from the sidewalk, although there are certain spots in town where they often hang out waiting for passengers, notably in front of the Michigan Union on State Street, and the Federal Building on Liberty Street.

Also offers flat rates to destinations around Michigan and nearby major cities.

Safe & Clean cab company that strives to provide Smoke-Free ride & Courteous Service. Offers flat rates to Airpot and other destinations around South-East Michigan. Special Discounts to University of Michigan Students & Faculty.

Ann Arbor's newest taxi service serving Ann Arbor and surrounding area.

AATA or TheRide provides bus service in and around Ann Arbor and downtown Ypsilanti.

Most commonly used by students traveling between the different campuses to and from classes, run on weekday full and weekend reduced schedules year-round, except for Thanksgiving day Thursday and Friday, Christmas day, and New Year's day. The routes connect the North, Central, and South campuses.

Downtown Ann Arbor is not large, so it's easy to get around just by walking. In fact, free parking is almost nonexistent, especially when the town is full of students, so you'll probably prefer to walk anyway. Occasionally you'll find an unused parking meter; you'll have to feed it money between 8AM-6PM on weekdays and Saturdays, otherwise they're free. There are parking lots and buildings scattered around downtown; they're free on Sundays, otherwise you can generally expect to pay around 80 cents to $1.20 per hour.
