Ahead of the World Cup, Atlanta showed what can be accomplished when transportation is prioritized. The need for safer streets and transit didn't begin with the World Cup, and it definitely shouldn't end with it. What would you like to see Atlanta keep investing in after the World Cup? 💬

Last month, we joined Mayor Andre Dickens and former Councilmember Carden Wyckoff for a Mobility Walk in the West End to discuss the everyday challenges facing people who walk, roll, bike, and ride transit in this area. Read our full reflection here: www.linkedin.com/feed/update/....
