Transforming the Piedmont Road Corridor

The Piedmont Area Transportation Study is the result of a one-year community planning effort sponsored by the Buckhead Community Improvement District (CID) and the Buckhead Area Transportation Management Association (BATMA).  The study calls for a 20-year, $200 million plan of action to transform the Piedmont Road Corridor from a traffic-choked liability into a transportation asset for Buckhead and the region.
