The Cobb Board of Commissioners has approved a $180,000 contract with Tindale-Oliver & Associates to develop a plan for a Cobb Community Transit route from Kennesaw State University to colleges in Atlanta. The CCT 10X route is expected to provide quicker service and decrease travel time by limiting stops. Marietta worked with Southern Polytechnic and Life Universities in Marietta on a study a year ago that recommended a transit route to link students and universities in Cobb and downtown Atlanta.
