    MARTA proposed modifications for Routes 49, 50, 79, 95, 172 (to be replaced by the New 872), New 177, 178, 192, 850, 853, for April 2019 Service Modifications. Route 49: McDonough Boulevard: It is proposed that Route 49 be realigned to operate along Ted Turner Drive to Mitchell Street (inbound) and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive (outbound). Service along Trinity Avenue and Forsyth Street will continue to be provided by Route 813. Route 50: Donald Lee Hollowell Parkway: It is proposed that all Route 50 trips serve the UPS Distribution Center on Fulton Industrial Boulevard. Service to Atlanta Industrial Park is proposed to be served by modifications to Route 850. Route 79: Sylvan Hills It is proposed that Route 79 be realigned to provide service to the Martel Homes community. At Springdale Road & Cleveland Avenue, the proposed Route 79 will turn right (west) on Cleveland Avenue, left on Norman Berry Drive and left on Marie Head Terrace, assuming the Martel Homes loop from Route 192. From here, Route 79 is proposed to continue along the current Route 192 alignment to East Point Station via Calhoun Avenue, Bayard Street, Holcomb Avenue, Randall Street, Washington Avenue, R.N. Martin Street, Irene Kidd Parkway and Main Street. Current Route 79 passengers along Sylvan Road (north of Langston Avenue) and Murphy Avenue are proposed to be served by new Route 872. Stops along East Cleveland Avenue, Jefferson Terrace, Jefferson Avenue and R.N. Martin Street (north of Irene Kidd Parkway) are proposed for discontinuation due to underutilization. Instead, these areas will be accessible to transit services along Cleveland Avenue (Route 78) and Sylvan Road (Route 872).

    piedmont area transportation study final report Several portions of the corridor, such as near the northern and southern activity centers, do have more consistent and attractive streetscape environments. However, other portions existing of the corridor have not received improvements during recent years. This creates a disconnected corridor and provides unattractive and difficult conditions for individuals wishing to walk between the areas with nicer aesthetics and well-kept conditions streetscapes. This discontinuity between areas is even more noticeable to motorists who drive along the corridor. Zoning Structure Portions of the corridor lie within Special Public Interest (SPI) districts which provide an additional layer of zoning. These areas are located on the east side of Piedmont Road north of Peachtree Road as well as on both sides of Above: Recently completed Phase I Peachtree Road Piedmont Road in the Lindbergh Center Complete Streets streetsape area. These overlay districts allow for Right: Lindbergh Center as common goals pertaining to aesthetics, a model of good streetscape attractiveness to all user groups, and unity of appearance in these locations as development occurs. Several areas that are prime for redevelopment are currently not within overlay districts (along the west side of Piedmont Road south and north of Peachtree Road), making them vulnerable to development that does not support the common goals of the corridor. “ … We have worked with the City of Atlanta very closely throughout this process so that our recom- mendations can be put directly into the plan they create for the entire city.

    Decatur's Transportation Network, 2007

    3 • Decatur’s Transportation Network, 2007 CHAPTER • 3 Decatur’s Transportation Network, 2007 othing speaks louder of a city’s transportation system than how its residents use it. A public survey conducted as part of the CTP revealed that sixty-seven N percent of commuters drive alone to get to work or school. Over 20 percent of commuters in Decatur either walk, bike or take transit. Even more interesting, 79 percent of residents reported having walked or ridden a bike to downtown Decatur. Additionally, the majority of residents feel that it is easy to get around the City. These results indicate a system that already provides a lot of choice for travelers. The following sections detail the extent of these choices, i.e. the facilities that make up the existing Decatur transportation network. The CTP uses this snapshot of how Decatur gets around in 2007 to recommend how the City can build upon its existing strengths to realize its vision of a healthy and well-connected community. Existing Street Network Streets are where it all comes together for travel in and through Decatur. The streets and their edges provide places for people to walk, bicycle and travel in buses and other vehicles. Compared with the MARTA rail system and off-road paths and greenways, the street system in Decatur accommodates the majority of travel and is detailed below. Roadway Classification in Decatur In 1974, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) published the manual Highway Functional Classification - Concepts, Criteria and Procedures. The manual was revised in 1989 and forms the basis of this roadway classification inventory.
