I was hoping the stadium would be a carat for Cobb to say yes to expanding MARTA up the I-75 corridor to alleviate the hellacious traffic by the stadium, alas - it has not come to fruition.


Unfortunately, this was Cobb's primary thinking regarding a MARTA connection to STP (courtesy of the Cobb GOP chair/now convicted felon due to child molestation Joe Dendy):

yep. the only way marta would have been a real benefit for the majority is if they created a line along 285 to connect the red and gold lines over to STP. I'd ride the shite out of that, but an I75 branch would likely be a waste for most of the metro area.
