Atlanta Downtown Streetcar
The first phase of the Atlanta Streetcar project is a 2.7 miles long operating loop from the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site to Woodruff Park, Centennial Olympic Park, and back. Stops along the route include: King Historic District, Peachtree Center, Centennial Olympic Park, Hurt Park and the Sweet Auburn Market. The four vehicles are examples of the most advanced modern streetcar design and technology available. The Overhead Contact System (OCS) utilizes a single trolley wire system suspended from OCS poles, blending in with the city street lights. The Project is supported by a new two-bay Vehicle Maintenance Facility located in the heart of the alignment on Fort Street.
