Feds award $25M to ramp up Beltline construction

Atlanta is set to receive $25 million from the federal government to ramp up construction of Beltline trails on the northeast side of the city.

The funds mark the largest federal grant in Beltline history and will go toward expanding more than 2 miles of trails between Armour/Ottley and Lindbergh areas. The additions will be the first time the Beltline will connect to a MARTA station — which will be at Lindbergh Center.
