"MARTA has recently unilaterally decided to either make the Broad Street connection a bus
terminal or abandon the Broad Street reconnection entirely and spend all this City funding to
create a new version of what we already have. This is a shocking turn of events as we have been
working for two years on the original proposal. It jeopardizes the entire project as certainly
Atlanta will not support further diminishing this place through an enormous investment of
public money.
What’s happening at Five Points will be repeated throughout the city if there is there is not clear
direction to MARTA that this investment is first and foremost about making a city for walking
and transit usage; not internal operational challenges."
