Mission Zero Corridor Blueprints [Executive Summary]

Highways everywhere connect our communities but also create critical divides. This pervasive infrastructure is continuously maintained, rebuilt and expanded, yet thoughtful dialogue on highway impacts and detriments have not been addressed. This Mission Zero¨ Corridor Blueprints project examines possible reinvention for the future of highways to have only positive impacts on our communities and our environments.
The Georgia ConservancyÕs Blueprints for Successful Communities program, in partnership with graduate students from the College of Architecture at Georgia Institute of Technology and urban designers from Perkins+Will, examined the potential that may exist to transform highway corridors to roadways that have far less degrading environmental impacts.
