Transportation

Body

Item Summary:

The Atlanta Regional Commission programmed $25 million of MARTA capital funds in return for funding MARTA Operations in 2009. The City entered into three Intergovernmental Agreements (IGA) with MARTA in July 2010. The Bus Stop Amenities project includes improvements at 25 existing bus stop locations. Ten of these locations will be bus shelters. The other fifteen locations will be Simme-Seats.

 

This is a required GDOT Indemnity Agreement since the bus stop improvements will be owned and maintained by the City of Roswell, however, they are located in GDOTs right-of-way (State Routes).

 

Committee or Staff Recommendation:

On April 27, 2011 the Community Development and Transportation Committee recommended placing this Item on the May 9, 2011 Mayor and Council Agenda.

 

Financial Impact:
