Snowpocalypse 2014, what are the real issues: poor planning, inadequate and/or untimely communication? Is a discombobulated inadequate Metropolitan Atlanta transportation system the real culprit? Georgians, especially those residents of the the Metropolitan
Atlanta Region, each day under normal conditions are plagued by traffic snarls.
Why are automobiles and trucks the most expedient modes of transportation
for getting from one locale to another and for delivering goods throughout
Metropolitan Atlanta? Is a comprehensive public system of rail and buses
required to avert and ameliorate weather debacles like the one we are
experiencing? Should we upgrade and expand the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid
Transit Authority (MARTA) System of rail and buses throughout the Metropolitan
Region to reduce the number of private automobiles clogging the roadways?
Where were the Georgia Regional Transit Authority (GRETA), Cobb County
Transit (CCT) and other pieces of Metropolitan Atlanta's limping and
discombobulated transportation system?
