Abstract

This study is a visionary plan that outlines the possibility of reintroducing streetcars to Athens, Georgia. The proposed streetcar system would span 6.5 miles and could be an advantageous addition to the existing Athens Transit System. The streetcar system could replace existing bus service along the proposed streetcar routes. This proposed system for Athens could be beneficial to the economic and transportation system of the city. The study involves information gathered from case studies of other streetcar systems in the United States of America. The study considered different potential alignments and route combinations and identified three preferred lines. The study results in a streetcar plan document for Athens Clarke County to explore the opportunity of implementing a streetcar system.INDEX WORDS: streetcars; alignments; urban circulator; ridership, Right-of-way; fixed guide-way; mobility
