Atlanta Regional Transit Corridor

Inhabitants of cities depend upon utilities for an expected level of comfort and quality of life. To provide, utility companies aim to deliver service to customers as effectively and efficiently as possible. Atlanta Regional Transit Corridor (ARTC) explores the bridging of single-use utility corridors to create a joint utility corridor to further effectiveness and efficiency in the delivery of utilities. The ARTC investigates a possible route to circumnavigate Atlanta, Georgia, presents contextual indicators surrounding one section of a possible route, and explores other potential urban corridor uses. The ARTC illustrates possible designs of a joint utility corridor and future transit-oriented development possibilities as a result of implementation. Also included is a brief legal summary outlining the legal parameters surrounding the possible implementation of the proposed ARTC. The results of the study are intended to provide a professional planned document for effected municipalities to further explore the possibilities, feasibility, benefits, and costs of joint utility corridors.
