Review Cycle Atlanta Phase 1.0 Study and other Bicycle Projects Before City Hall, 11/19

The City of Atlanta's Department of Planning and community Development announces a Public Open House where you can review the draft of the Cycle Atlanta: Phase 1.0 Study before it is presented to Atlanta City Council for adoption. The recommendations of the bicycle plan specifically address the diverse population of the central Atlanta area by considering the needs of different ages and demographic groups. The network of five study corridors directly connects to four regional medical centers, 11 public schools, two private schools, seven colleges and universities, and 13 MARTA Rapid Rail Stations. Data collected from our newly-released smartphone App, CycleAtlanta, was used throughout the planning process (http://www.cycleatlanta.org).
