These segments of the Atlanta Beltline are closed for construction through the first quarter of 2026.

Project Status

After a contract was executed with Reeves Young, a Notice to Proceed was issued by ABI on April 29, 2024. The contractor mobilized on May 20.

In order to protect tri-colored bat breeding habitat, federal restrictions on clearing are in place through July 31st.

This project achieved the highest level of federal funding possible at 80% of the total construction budget. ABI anticipates to have the trail construction wrapped by early 2026, to be followed by landscaping. Read more here about the accelerated timeframe for the Southside Trail.

A virtual community meeting was held on May 30th. Watch the meeting recording on the Beltline's Facebook channel.
