One of the candidates for Governor is supporting a GDOT plan for a road connect 400 with 675. It would be a tunnel under certain well-to-do neighborhoods and a surface road once it gets to more colorful parts of town who are less likely to be able to defend themselves. Not surprisingly, none of the neighborhoods along the way support it, including the neighborhoods that successfully beat the last road years ago. Public transit continues to get lukewarm support, people keep moving farther and farther out into the burbs while complaining about the traffic problem they just created by moving to the burbs. The Beltline project is still moving along, and the part of the Beltline that goes directly behind my place should be a gravel(ish) walking and biking trail any day now - connecting all the way through to Piedmont park. One of the Beltline projects closest to me will become the only skatepark in Atlanta and was just given a grant of $25K by Tony Hawk's foundation to get it going. -Cameron . ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:318783 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
