Last modified Wednesday, January 16, 2008 9:54

ARC initiated the Downtown/Midtown Bus Circulation Study to determine ways to improve bus routing and pedestrian accessibility to transit in downtown and Midtown Atlanta and to improve coordination among all operating agencies and stakeholder groups.

Study recommendations include:

• Moving all express bus service off Peachtree Street, help to protect the character and pedestrian environment within the Peachtree Street corridor in downtown and Midtown Two-way bus service on West Peachtree Street through the use of a contra-flow lane
• Two-way bus service on Peachtree Center Avenue by either converting the road to two-way traffic or through the use of a contra-flow lane
• Forming a "Green Light" team to guide implementation efforts

With the completion of the study, the initiative now moves forward with a "Green Light" Implementation Team made up of a smaller group of stakeholders and traffic planners to develop a more detailed plan of action.
