Say Whaaaat?

Atlanta Beltline Inc. (ABI) has announced the start of design for the Murphy Crossing Beltline infill MARTA station. Join ABI at Wild Heaven Brewery from 6:30 to 8:00 PM on Thursday, October 29th for this public meeting. It’s been 3½ years since the mayor announced he wanted to see 4 MARTA infill stations on the Beltline, and Atlanta Beltline Inc. is starting the 15% design phase for Murphy Crossing this week. (why MARTA isn't designing a MARTA station is one question inquiring minds want to ask).

• How long will the design take to complete?

• When would construction begin?

• Will Beltline rail open before the Murphy MARTA station?

• How long a walk from the Beltline to the station could it be?

• What needs to happen to get this station built—and what could cause more delays?
