3rd Street Bike Lanes
Project Categories: All Projects Bike + e-Scooter Facilities Complete Streets Study Multi-Modal Physical Improvements
Midtown Alliance is developing a plan to expand east-west multimodal connectivity in Midtown on 3rd Street between Piedmont Avenue west to the end of 3rd Street at the 3rd Street tunnel under Interstate 75/85. This tunnel may one day be reopened to provide a connection to bicycle and pedestrian facilities west of the interstate on Georgia Tech's campus. As retail, housing, and commercial development expands along and around 3rd Street, providing multiple modes of transportation becomes increasingly important.
Bicycle lanes are currently provided on a portion of 3rd Street between West Peachtree Street NW and Peachtree Street NE. This project proposes to expand these bike lanes and provide additional protection for cyclists and those on micromobility devices.
A drop-in public meeting is planned for Wednesday, July 9th. Please drop by between 5pm and 7pm at the corner of 3rd Street and Cypress Street to share your thoughts on the corridor and view proposed improvements along 3rd Street. If rain is expected, the meeting will be shifted to Thursday, July 10th. Please check this website for updates.
