Corner of Forsyth Street SW and Martin Luther King, Jr., Drive SW

The Atlanta Department of Transportation (ATLDOT) will reopen a key corridor that links major business and entertainment hubs in downtown Atlanta to morning commuters. The Ted Turner Bridge—formerly the Spring Street Bridge—now includes a rebuilt viaduct and roadway, extending from the intersections of Mitchell Street SW, situated between the Richard B. Russell Federal Building and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Building, and MartinLuther King, Jr. Drive SW.

Key improvements to the corridor include the widening of the newly constructed Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive viaduct and the new abutment to the Ted Turner SW viaduct, along with the expansion of the approach slab, construction of a retaining wall, and reconstruction of the lower portion of Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive SW.

Following the reopening of the roadway to morning commuters, City officials and ATLDOT Commissioner Solomon Caviness will be available to discuss the project and major infrastructure improvements included.
