To many, this may look like just another infrastructure project. To us, it’s the foundation of Atlanta’s future.

The Atlanta Beltline is a sustainable urban revitalization project transforming 22 miles of abandoned railroad corridor into a network of public parks, multi-use trails and a light rail transit system circling downtown Atlanta and connecting 45 in-town neighborhoods. Considered a catalyst for economic growth and renewal, the Atlanta Beltline is also a springboard for smart city connectivity, connecting homes, businesses, roadways, schools, healthcare facilities, light poles, traffic signals, public safety infrastructure and much more.

In partnership with the Atlanta Beltline, Inc., eX² Technology designed and deployed an accelerated Atlanta fiber network that parallels the Beltline. The multi-duct, fiber-rich communications network supports the Beltline’s internal communications as well as Atlanta smart city infrastructure, public safety initiatives and future connectivity needs. eX² serves as the Atlanta Beltline’s exclusive commercialization partner, marketing excess duct, dark fiber and wireless capacity to those seeking to expand their reach within the Atlanta market. This urban fiber network creates new opportunities for broadband, wireless and other communications services throughout the corridor.
