3 Ways to Imagine ATL in 2050 – and Help Shape the Region’s Long-Range Plan

By: Paul Donsky, Atlanta Regional Commission

Imagine the year 2050. What do you think metro Atlanta will be like three decades from now?

Will advanced technology (self-driving cars and other gizmos yet to be invented) bring solutions to age-old problems? Or will today’s challenges only grow as the years pass, leaving us in crisis?

These questions are far from academic, late-night dorm-room fodder. Local leaders and planners must look decades ahead in order make smart decisions and investments today.

Now, you can add your voice to the discussion and help shape the latest update to the Atlanta Region’s Plan. That’s the name of the long-range plan developed by the Atlanta Regional Commission that details the investments needed to make our region a better place to live in the decades to come – things like an improved transportation network, walkable communities, services for older adults, and programs to help people find better jobs.
