Two major Midtown Atlanta street projects will break ground in 2024, reports Josh Green in Urbanize Atlanta. The plans include new bike lanes and other infrastructure connecting MARTA transit hubs.

“The more extensive project, the 15th Street Extension, has undergone more than six years of planning and fundraising and a hiccup involving the bidding process that knocked its construction timeline back,” Green explains. Now, the project is moving forward, with plans to build new road lanes, five-foot-wide bike lanes, wider sidewalks,  and new street furniture and landscaping.

The second project will add roughly .6 miles of new infrastructure on 5th Street, one of Atlanta’s most successful multimodal streets. “Planned upgrades call for infill street trees to protect bike lanes, upgraded ADA ramps and crosswalks, better lighting, a new traffic signal at Williams Street, and a full repaving and re-striping of the street.”
