					<description><![CDATA[To be fair, there isn&#039;t any PRT reality just yet. 

And for that sort of clogging to happen, a Beltline PRT would have to be pretty popular indeed.  With just one big transit loop, it couldn&#039;t get all that clogged anyway---even at the busier stations, which would be built bigger.  If we added an Emory loop and/or a south DeKalb loop, I could see the intersections getting a bit backed up.

But I hope we wouldn&#039;t dismiss a good idea just because of the potential annoyances that we&#039;d only see if it became wildly successful.  

Think of the benefits of a clogged PRT Beltline: With that many cars off the road, air quality would improve bunches, and the roads (ITP, anyway) would be as unpopulated as on Sunday mornings.  I could live with that kind of problem.

But of course, as you say, nothing quite lives up to the commercial.]]></description>
