ABOUT THE PROJECT: In March of 2018, the City of Atlanta acquired the Southside Trail corridor. The Southside Corridor connects the Westside and Eastside Trails at the southernmost part of the Atlanta BeltLine loop. In 2019, the trail will open in interim conditions for public use. Please join us to learn more about what to expect in the coming months.
