The Park at Perimeter Center East in Dunwoody and 2400 Lake Park Drive in Smyrna, both suburbs of Atlanta, are developments that seeks to increase the density of residential and office uses in the community. Grubb Properties Inc. sought the help of Copenhagenize Design Co. to produce white papers illustrating the potential for the bicycle not only at the future Park at PCE and Lake Park Drive developments, but as an everyday mode of transportation throughout greater Atlanta. 

To make a convincing argument for the bicycle in Dunwoody and Smyrna, our team conducted research and GIS analysis to examine the existing bicycle infrastructure, traffic conditions, and destinations accessible by bike in the surrounding community. From there, a number of crucial connection points were highlighted for non-motorized travel, concluding that — with greater bike infrastructure — there is indeed a strong potential for the bicycle as a tool for residents of all ages and abilities.
