Transportation- Headlines
• Demand for travel expected to increase greatly
• Much of the region has limited travel options
• Region’s limited transit options are in jeopardy
• Our ability to fund new projects is tied to revenue streams that are decreasing, while demand increases
![Page 18: Dan Reuter, Atlanta Regional Commission](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061217/54b413144a7959d12c8b4844/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Very few households have high degree of job-access
2010 2040
Blue = Largest concentrations of households with a degree of access to jobs
Green = Limited employment options, workers are ‘exported’ to other areas
![Page 19: Dan Reuter, Atlanta Regional Commission](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061217/54b413144a7959d12c8b4844/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Transportation costs greatest in suburbs.
![Page 20: Dan Reuter, Atlanta Regional Commission](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061217/54b413144a7959d12c8b4844/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Urban expansion without urban services
![Page 21: Dan Reuter, Atlanta Regional Commission](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061217/54b413144a7959d12c8b4844/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Falling behind our peers/competitors on transit
Charlotte (2007) LYNX Blue Line 9.6 miles, $462 million
Dallas Expansion (2009-2013)43 miles, $2.9 billion
Denver (2007) 122 miles, $4.7 billion
![Page 22: Dan Reuter, Atlanta Regional Commission](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061217/54b413144a7959d12c8b4844/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Transit Oriented Development (TOD) is Key.
Brookings Institute 2007 report 29 largest metro areas in the U.S. in terms of the number of transit enabled, walkable urban locations.
The report ranked Atlanta 14th with a total of four: Midtown, Atlantic Station, Decatur and Buckhead. Washington, D.C. which was ranked #1 and has twenty (20) locations.
MARTA rail station areas must become walkable, urban centers.
ARC, Livable Communities Coalition and MARTA have begun seeking greater support for local governments.
