For over 30 years (at least 1992 pictured), Atlanta’s Trolley Trail between the BeltLine & what’s currently built out has been on the books, working with the same city and PATH foundation.
We need to get this project right while we have then money to deliver!
⭐️ Meet up by the blue swings at Upper Lang-Carson Park at 5:20 🛑 Leaving promptly by bike at 5:25 for the short ride to meet @letspropelatl at Tye & Memorial at 5:30 🏁 After the ribbon cutting, continue along Memorial cycle track to DAS BBQ for social
Y’all remember that CIE project we submitted that @atlplanning & @atldot initially responded it with being infeasible & did not qualify for funds because of their assessment?
Here’s where my head is at for Atlanta’s proposed trolley trail extension to the @atlantabeltline
Kirkwood make a safe/open/slow/bike ped only street. Feel free to replace my text re: modal filters with any of the above & I support it lol. Just not yellow striped sidewalk 👎
Pretty much everyone that bikes picked the north option. Much of the southern option selection due to the sidewalk gaps, which could be filled along with some of the northern alignment up to Kirkwood.
Really need comments back to ATLDOT to not make this binary, but best usage of funds…
Atlantans would *love* modal filters to mitigate cur through drivers in their neighborhoods and make the streets safer for kids & walking around again 👀
