Atlanta’s goal as a city and a region should, at a minimum, not be the WORST CITY IN THE WORLD IN TRANSPORTATION. This involves transit. Bike lanes. Land use. Zoning. Combination of policy, funding, and individual choices. We can do this, but we have a LONG way to go.

I don’t think anyone in Cobb County realizes the level of impact the World Cup will have. KSU and Atlanta United will be training facilities. The Battery will likely be used as a fanzone area. Woe be the international travelers who come expecting a robust transit network.

Seriously? That sounds like basic prep and time management for any large CEO or important person with a busy schedule.

Not in Springfield… Also not a Haitian Immigrant. But don’t let facts get in the way of your fear mongering.

Today, I volunteered to be a poll watcher in Smyrna. I am exhausted and my legs are dead, but it was one of the most fulfilling things I’ve done. I helped 5 people vote for their first time and 3 people would have walked away and not voted if I didn’t convince them to stay.

Took @Amtrak Crescent from Charlottesville, VA to Atlanta, GA this past week and I thought I would share my experience since there are plans to expand in the Southeast with Atlanta as the central hub. 🧵

Trump trying to use the hurricane as a campaign benefit is Ghoulish. Friendly reminder: * He withheld relief $ from NC after Hurricane Matthew * He withheld relief $ from Puerto Rico * He threatened to withhold $ from California for forest fires if elected

At this rate, Charlotte will be the golden city of the south above Atlanta in 20-30 years

The backlash against proposed ADU changes in #CobbCounty isn’t just related to the NIMBY factor, but the Not In *Your* Back Yard factor, too. @mstigall

Just left the I-285 Top End Express Lane open house and it’s shocking how different the approach is when a highway project is discussed compared to transit. Highway: no mention of total construction costs or future maintenance estimates Transit: BILLIONS. BILLIONS. BILLIONS.
