Transit survey asks how mobility should look

Literally. The Transit Planning Board — the agency that brought you the regional-transit vision called Concept3 — kindly asks for your help to determine how a more mobile metro Atlanta would look.
Visit this survey the agency created that asks what works and what doesn’t. Did a set of railroad tracks look better with or without a commuter rail station? Should downtown Atlanta be served by a bus or light-rail? Should buses run on I-75 or should commuter rail zip along the shoulder?
The board did a commendable job by actually showing how many of the possible solutions to metro Atlanta’s traffic woes would actually appear. If you’re a fan of what-could-be, it’s worth your time to check it out.

Key answer: GET OFF YOUR ASSES AND DO SOMETHING NOW. We’ve been having these stupid studies and commissions for years. I don’t care if we have to have a transit dictator to get it done. It needed to be done back in the 60s.
