He shared insights about these Toronto-style low-wall barriers. They’re heavy enough to keep cars from parking in the bike lane, but low enough that adults and kids can still see them. Plus, if a vehicle bumps one, it recoils and bounces right back, keeping the street open.

Class is in session at Georgia Tech, and so is smart infrastructure. Here’s a quick look at how we use  different types of concrete medians and flex posts to create distinct, durable boundaries for cyclists.

A dark signal doesn't have to throw off your whole commute. Follow the right-of-way rules, share the lane with others, and report the problem in the ATL311 app. We’ll dispatch a unit to restore power while you manage the rest of your trip.

The new traffic control cabinet going in on Boulevard & Auburn Ave will strengthen the infrastructure supporting the corridor’s signal operations. It’s one of those upgrades you may not notice, but it plays an important role in keeping the system running day after day.
