But I'm not sure that is true if the goal is to contact Summerhill. I live near Turner Field, actually a bit to the east. I'm not sure everyone realizes it, but taking Juniper straight south not only takes you through all of Midtown, past the major convention hotels, through GSU, through the State Capitol complex and City Hall, but dumps you onto the Connector. Not a single turn. However, one left turn at the Capitol and a right turn onto Capitol Ave and you are on Hank Aaron Blvd and in the heart of Summerhill. When you head north, you can literally take it all the way up Courtland/Piedmont. No turns at all. It is a very efficient routing with very few directional changes. In many ways, Ideal for BRT, imho.
