MARTA's North Springs station on the east side of Ga. 400. Residents want a possible MARTA expansion to north Fulton County to cross the highway and run on the west side of the highway. AJC file
MARTA is having an interesting summer. Development around its rail stations looks to be gathering steam. Expansion south to Clayton County seems inevitable now that residents — most of them pro-transit — get to vote for a penny sales tax in November. And expansion north along Ga. 400 also shows promise, as long as MARTA chooses the right route. Today, neighborhood leaders in Sandy Springs outline the best way for MARTA to win over North Fulton residents.
