Future System Interactions… • Northeast Trail • Northeast Transit • Northside Trail • Northside Transit • MARTA Armour Station • Clifton Corridor LRT

These are all “defined by placeholders.” Northeast Trail

Systems Interactions… • Northeast Trail cannot preclude any viable alternatives along any potential Northside BeltLine Corridor Northeast Trail

Connect with Existing System • MARTA Red/Gold Lines • PATH400 • Cheshire Farm Trail • Confluence Trail

Consider Future Network Connections Northeast Trail

Physical Constraints… • I-85/Buford Hwy • MARTA Red/Gold Line • MARTA Armour Yard • Norfolk Southern Rail • CSX Rail • Peachtree Creek • Brookwood Hills Conservation Easement • Armour Drive – Under Buford Hwy – Under MARTA/NSR Northeast Trail

How Did We Move This Forward? 1. Identified Alternatives 2. Developed Performance Measures 3. Analyzed Alternatives 4. Considered Existing Systems Impacts 5. Considered Possible Future Infrastructure 6. Simplified… Northeast Trail

Alternatives… 1. Segment Identification 2. Chained Segments 3. How Can We Simplify? 4. Transit Governs 5. If…Then… 6. Simplified. Northeast Trail

Decision Point 1. Wye Bridges over Buford Highway 2. If Transit on one, then Trail on the other Northeast Trail
