Let Us Coordinate Your Additional Parking Needs

Shuttle / Bus Program Administration

Do you need to provide bus services for transporting your employees from their suburban homes to your downtown headquarters? Metropolitan Parking Services can help.

Take a look below at how we coordinate the work of other suppliers to provide Shuttle / Bus program administration for leading Downtown Detroit employers. Then consider whether services like these may be helpful to your organization.

• Vendor Coordination / Supervision
  MPS prepares the scope of services to include in the Shuttle / Bus program. We then screen vendors to ensure their capability to perform the required services, and select the optimum vendor.
• Logistics Coordination
  MPS determines pick-up and drop-off locations, as well as the routes between them. These locations may require contact with the property owner. MPS handles negotiations, contracts, and agreements as required.
• Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable
  MPS bill users of the Shuttle / Bus program, and ensures proper distribution and applications of funds received.

Groundskeeping / Landscaping

Along with managing parking operations for high-profile facilities, destinations, and events, Metropolitan Parking Services also coordinates the work of other suppliers in maintaining the grounds for selected sites.
