Since Moreland Avenue is a state road, the opportunities to make changes to its design go through the Georgia Department of Transportation. Thanks to an update to the Moreland Avenue LCI Study that the Little 5 Points CID managed in 2017, Moreland Avenue was slated for multiple improvements to make the area more bicycle and pedestrian friendly. These include:

• Completely new sidewalks from Mansfield to Dekalb Ave

• Mid-block crossing with HAWK signal between the Post Office and Junkman’s Daughter

• Wider sidewalks near the tight turn at Corner Tavern

• Protected bike lane from McLendon to Dekalb Ave that will eventually connect to bicycle infrastructure on Dekalb Ave

• Narrow vehicle lanes to slow down speeding cars

• New tree plantings thanks to Trees Atlanta
