Pickup points will include 254 W. Ponce de Leon Avenue, 230 E. Ponce de Leon Avenue, 130 Clairemont Avenue, Decatur First Baptist Church, and W. Trinity Place at Commerce Drive. The shuttle is scheduled to begin running Jan. 16. For more information on the route and schedule, you can visit www.DecaturGA.com/ed/page/circulator-shuttle-pilot-program or contact Shirley Baylis at [email protected].
