Mike Plant, Braves executive vice president of business operations, said at a recent Kennesaw Business Association meeting that he encourages business owners and residents to “think outside of the box” and look into new transportation methods to the stadium, according to a report in the Marietta Daily Journal.
The paper quoted Plant as saying that he hopes local community improvement districts will consider extending their biking trails toward the stadium. “We’re working closely with the CIDs because we’re going to have a lot of bikers, and we want people to ride there, certainly on the weekends and take cars off the road,” Plant is quoted as saying in the MDJ.
