Atlanta seems to have an endless capacity to talk about the state of sidewalk repair. By most accounts, the state of repair is poor. The repair bill for more than 1,200 miles of sidewalks is pegged above $150 million. The city’s challenge isn’t just maintaining sidewalks. Keeping up with their location is a problem.

Instead, the council routinely votes to have the sidewalks built elsewhere. To read more of this report, visit the SaportaReport roll on the right.
