Clifton Corridor Transit Initiative Announces Locally Preferred Alternative

Jesse Thompson Leave a comment

MARTA Planning staff has completed the review of community feedback and technical analysis and have finalized a recommended locally preferred alternative (LPA) for the Clifton Corridor. The LPA is the alternative that, based on technical analysis and stakeholder input, would most effectively address the needs of the corridor and goals and objectives of the project.

The recommended LPA includes 8.8 miles of new light rail transit (LRT) service connecting the Lindbergh MARTA Station to the Emory/Clifton Corridor and beyond to the Avondale MARTA Station. The recommendation for the locally preferred alternative includes several tunnels and one of those tunnels extends from an area west of Lenox Road to an area just west of Briarcliff Road.

Crime alert – ADT imposter

Jesse Thompson Leave a comment

Dear Residents,

Our friends in the Morningside neighborhood report that a man claiming to be with the ADT home security company has been canvassing Morningside homes, asking questions about homeowners' security systems. The man claims that ADT is out replacing outdated security signs and equipment.

ADT has been called and states that it does not have anything like this happening or scheduled.

Stay alert! If this individual contacts you, call 911, and report him to the police.
