BRACK: Think big on transit: Extend heavy rail lines to Infinite Energy Arena

By Elliott Brack  |  Gwinnettians can expect a decision by the County Commission soon on whether there will be a question on the ballot about public transportation, that is, MARTA, on the November ballot.

We hope there is. The commission could also postpone the vote, so that the county might vote instead later on whether it should join the new Atlanta-region Transit Link Authority, being called The ATL.
