Forsyth Street

In anticipation of future resurfacing on Forsyth Street, CAP/ADID is developing conceptual street sections to reconfigure the existing roadway between Memorial Drive and Peachtree Street into a more multimodal corridor.

Currently, Forsyth Street serves Xpress, CobbLinc, Gwinnett County Transit, and MARTA buses; however, the buses must use mixed traffic lanes. As Forsyth Street runs alongside Five Points MARTA station, the corridor is a logical location to explore dedicated bus lanes for mass transit vehicles. CAP/ADID is continuing to meet with key stakeholders about the proposed bus and bicycle facilities. 

Due to varying conditions throughout the corridor, four different street sections are proposed to meet the multimodal needs in different locations. While stakeholder outreach is ongoing, this document outlines the currently proposed street sections.
