Transit

A More Connected Atlanta

If you have ever walked, biked, driven, or taken MARTA in Atlanta you then know that our city is not the easiest to navigate. With a legacy of institutional racism that has spanned centuries, many of our neighborhoods remain fractured, with little investment in connectivity.  As our next City Councilmember: 

  1. I will prioritize complete street design, including sidewalks, bike lanes, and ADA infrastructure in order to create a more bikeable, walkable, and accessible city for everyone. 

  2. I will work to reduce parking requirements along transit corridors to encourage alternative transit usage. 

  3. I will leverage federal dollars and private partnerships to invest in both more MARTA and Beltline Rail initiatives to expand inter-neighborhood and multi-modal connectivity, as well as to solve the “last mile problem.” 

  4. I will also strengthen partnerships with our regional transit institutions to push Atlanta to be the transit hub of the South, which I know we have the potential to be. 

We cannot get any of this done if we do not better manage how our tax-payer dollars are spent. To read more about my ideas for a more transparent and ethical Atlanta, click here.
