Amid the hundreds of projects to be funded with TSPLOST monies if the referendum passes, perhaps the most significant public transit initiative is that slated for the 'Clifton Corridor,' and the final opportunity for your opinions to be heard on it is TONIGHT. On the drawing board is an extension of MARTA to connect the Lindbergh station with Emory, the CDC and the Avondale station. In addition to relieving the near-constant traffic snarl on the over-burdened surface streets near Emory, this sort of infastructure investment in an area with high concentrations of education, technology and medical industry is prime seed for job creation, which we've heard would be good for Atlanta.
