7 Festive Georgia Train Adventures That Bring Holiday Magic To The Rails

One Georgia holiday train runs about five and a half hours, and Santa rides along for the entire trip. That’s a long shift for a guy who still has a sleigh to prep. Another ride sends Frosty the Snowman, Mrs. Claus, and a cheerful crew of elves strolling through open-air coaches. A different train hands kids a jingle bell and a candy cane after a reading of The Night Before Christmas.

Cherokee County approves intersection improvement project

Improvements are coming to a congested intersection in east Cherokee County. On Tuesday, the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners unanimously voted to award a $1,754,149 construction services agreement to R&B Developer, Inc. to improve the intersection of Holbrook Campground Road and Midway Road. This intersection is located about two miles south of Highway 20 in eastern Cherokee County. Holbrook Campground Road is a two-lane roadway that runs between Highway 20 and the Fulton County line. Midway Road is a two-lane roadway that runs between Holbrook Campground Road, eventually becoming Windward Parkway in Fulton County. The intersection is a "badly skewed 'T' intersection" with a single stop on Midway Road, according to the county, and experiences congestion in the peak periods in the morning and afternoon. This project will "correct intersection geometry," change the through movement to Midway Road and make stormwater drainage improvements, Cherokee County Manager Geoff Morton said Tuesday. Construction is expected to be completed about 180 days after the notice to proceed is issued to the contractor. The project is funded by Transportation Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax funds and is the first capital improvement project to be constructed under the referendum, Morton said.

Can Atlanta squeeze a new MARTA station onto the Beltline?

Atlanta Beltline officials are studying whether a proposed station near Adair Park could become MARTA's first new heavy-rail stop in more than 25 years. Why it matters: If built, the Murphy Crossing infill station along the Southwest Trail could be the first rail station that connects with the Beltline trail and the long-debated rail line envisioned for it. Zoom in: The proposed station would be built between MARTA's West End and Oakland City stations and near the Beltline's planned 20-acre Murphy Crossing redevelopment of a former state farmers market property. How it works: Beltline principal engineer Shaun Green told residents at an Oct. 29 meeting not far from the proposed station's site that planners are evaluating five concepts. Options include building platforms alongside existing elevated MARTA tracks and rerouting the tracks to accommodate a new station. All would be significant construction projects. Yes, but: The area under consideration features a busy state highway, a city street, active freight lines and elevated MARTA train lines. Underneath the congested corridor there's the popular Beltline trail. "There's no way to fit this into the existing area without there being some [impacts]," Green said. Atlanta Beltline Inc., the nonprofit planning and building the Beltline,

Smyrna seeks feedback on proposed Chattahoochee River pedestrian bridge

Smyrna is exploring the feasibility of a new pedestrian and bicycle bridge over the Chattahoochee River. The bridge would be located near Riverview Landing, between Interstate 285 and Highway 78, connecting Cobb and Fulton counties. It would be part of the 100-mile Chattahoochee RiverLands Trail vision by the Georgia Trust for Public Land. “The bridge could improve connections between existing and planned trail systems while creating new opportunities for recreation, mobility, and access to the river,” the survey reads. In October, officials cut the ribbon on a half-mile section of RiverLands Showcase Trail in Smyrna, which the bridge would tie into. The trail section, located at Riverview Landing in Smyrna’s Riverview Park, a 12-acre linear park along the Chattahoochee, completes the northern portion of the Cobb RiverLands Showcase Project. The showcase begins in Discovery Park, running through Riverview Landing to a trailhead across the Chattahoochee from Proctor Creek. As part of a feasibility study for the bridge, the survey seeks input on project priorities, potential uses and the role the bridge could play in the community. To take the survey, visit app.maptionnaire.com/q/3er4faf8a7ci . The survey and feasibility are being conducted by Kimley-Horn Consulting services. In May, Smyrna awarded the project
