- Description:
- This is one of the main streets between Atlanta and Decatur, Georgia. There is heavy traffic at all times. This crossing is only about 300 feet south of of the crossing shown in exhibit U-48. It is used extensively while switching warehouses below the Edgewood Avenue viaduct. Signals are hard to see here due to the curvature of the tracks.
