Well, hopefully public transit will become more popular in Atlanta in the near future. We've been working on it.

I hope the perimeter rail project goes as planned.  With that and more major MARTA extensions ya'll will have it made.

I think these cities efforts are very noble, but as these cities develop there will start to be more traffic. They really can't do anything about it. It would be nicee if people relied more on public transportation, but all of these cities are sprawling out, and they will become too big for public transit. These developing cities will eventually find out that its very hard to stop suburban sprawl and you just have to learn to live with it.

Actually they can do a lot about it but most don't.  A trip to Japan proves that cities can grow without every increasing traffic and sprawl.
