ATLANTA (AP) The debut of the Atlanta Streetcar has been delayed again, this time due to safety concerns. <br />
<br />
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the latest delay pushes the launch from November until at least Dec. 6. <br />
<br />
The newspaper reports that the Federal Transit Administration earlier this month informed Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and his staff that safety issues must be resolved before the streetcars can transport passengers. <br />
<br />
Reed said those issues have since been addressed. He is asking state and federal officials to allow the transit service to begin Dec. 6 instead of mid-November. <br />
<br />
Federal Transit Administration Acting Administrator Therese McMillan said in a statement Wednesday that outstanding safety issues and regulatory requirements remain unresolved. <br />
<br />
The streetcar will run a 2.7-mile loop from Centennial Olympic Park to the King Center. <br />
