Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Clayton County commuter rail was a proposed commuter rail line traversing Clayton County, Georgia and connecting with the MARTA rapid transit system at East Point station. It was replaced by a BRT system by the Clayton County Board of Commissioners, the City Councils of Jonesboro, Forest Park, Lovejoy, Riverdale and Lake City, and the Clayton County Chamber of Commerce, MARTA Board of Directors Planning and Capital Programs Committee on Nov. 17, 2022 due to a variety of obstacles with right-of-way acquisition, environmental and historical resource concerns, along with a ballooning cost estimate. After Clayton County joined the MARTA system in 2014, MARTA began studying alternatives for high-capacity transit through the county. Commuter rail was selected as the locally preferred alternative in 2018, though stalled negotiations with the Norfolk Southern Railway, who owns the tracks, have caused planning to be put on hold. Multiple transit modes are being evaluated for passenger transit south of Atlanta. (en)
