The Atlanta Regional Commission has issued its final report on the Opus/Morningside project, and you can go to this webpage to find links to download the DRI Traffic Study and the ARC final report.
Major points contained in the ARC Final Report are as follows:
1. The existing forested buffer between the development and the Morningside Neighborhood should be maintained.
2. The value of the development is $70,000,000 and will generate $837,000 a year in local tax revenue.
3. The development will generate 4,452 new two-way traffic trips each day.
4. The development does NOT pass the ARC's benchmark air quality test.
5. The current transportation system is not "fully capable" of accommodating the new trips generated by the development and improvments should be implemented.
