During a recent Atlanta City Council meeting, several resolutions aimed at enhancing traffic safety and infrastructure were discussed and approved. Council member Jason Dozer led multiple initiatives requesting the installation of traffic calming devices on various streets, including Holderness Street, Pineview Terrace, and People Street, all aimed at reducing speeding and improving safety for residents.

In addition to these traffic measures, Council member Amir Farowki introduced a resolution to authorize the installation of a historical marker in front of Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield's headquarters. This marker will highlight the historical significance of the insurance industry in Georgia, emphasizing Anthem's role in shaping the state's economic landscape.

Further discussions included a resolution by Council member Dustin Hillis, which sought to install traffic calming devices on Bowler Road and Browntown Road, also to mitigate speeding concerns. The council approved these measures, reflecting a growing focus on community safety.

The meeting also addressed infrastructure improvements at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, with several resolutions authorizing agreements for various construction and consulting services. Notably, a significant contract for closed-circuit television upgrades was approved, amounting to over $89 million, alongside other agreements for shuttle services and parking deck reconstruction.

Council members expressed a desire for more comprehensive traffic studies and improvements, with a specific request for a study on County Line Road to assess the need for additional safety measures. The meeting concluded with a commitment to provide a list of outstanding traffic projects and their sequencing, ensuring transparency and accountability in the city's ongoing infrastructure efforts.
