High-speed trains across South are feasible - ABC 33/40 - Birmingham News, Weather, Sports
Member Center:
A consultant's study for Georgia transportation officials found that high-speed passenger trains connecting Atlanta with Jacksonville, Fla., Louisville, Ky, and Birmingham, Ala. would be economically feasible. That consultant HNTB presented the study's findings to Georgia's State Transportation Board. Officials say the feasibility study was the first of many steps in setting the final course of the train routes and securing funding.
The routes were studied after an earlier study showed the feasibility of a route from Atlanta to Charlotte, N.C. That project is now in the stage of estimating the environmental impact of possible paths.
