Broad Street SW & Garnett MARTA Plaza Enhancements

OVERVIEW
The Project includes streetscape elements intended to improve the safety, accessibility, and activation of the right of way for pedestrians and cyclists. The Project limits are the public right-of-way along Broad Street SW, beginning north of M.L. King, Jr. Drive and extending southward for three city blocks through Trinity Avenue SW and continuing on the previous Broad St right-of-way which now forms the plaza entrance to the Garnett MARTA rail station.
