Open house on Clifton corridor transit

MARTA is holding an open house to discuss mass transit in the Clifton Road corridor, serving Emory University, the Centers for Disease Control, the Veterans Affairs hospital and DeKalb Medical Center.

The meeting will be Thursday, May 19, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Emory University Conference Center at 1615 Clifton Road.

The region will hold a referendum for transportation funding in 2012, and for that project list MARTA has suggested a rail line that could travel to the Clifton corridor from Lindbergh station.
