Could this be our last update on DeKalb Ave: phase 1?
Long a sore spot for commuters and residents, DeKalb Avenue got a facelift last year: safer pedestrian crossings, fresh pavement, sidewalk fixes, and three segments of bike/LIT lanes.
Known as the “DeKalb Ave Safety Improvements Project,” these changes make up a scaled-back version of the full complete street project, aka “Phase II Safe Streets project.” That overhaul – set to include a separated bicycle/scoot/walk path between Krog Street and Rocky Ford Road – is still planned and funded through the Moving Atlanta Forward program.
We celebrate the progress. And, we have questions that haven’t been resolved yet.
