As The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has reported, Gwinnett County has unveiled a proposed transit plan that includes expanded local bus service and new bus rapid transit service within the county and to DeKalb County MARTA stations. It also includes an expansion of MARTA rail to Norcross.

The county has been soliciting public input on the plan. The AJC would like to hear from you as well.

Some folks want more transit options and say they’re way overdue. Others don’t believe mass transit makes sense for a suburban county. We’re interested in all opinions.
