Georgia Department of Transportation will host a 2014 Georgia state rail plan public meeting from 5-7 p.m. Thursday, April 17, in the Valdosta City Hall Annex, 300 N. Lee St.
The meeting is part of the GDOT’s outreach to the general public to get feedback on its 2014 Georgia State Rail Plan, a statewide, long-range, rail-planning document for passenger and freight service.
Parts of the plan include a description of the state rail network, its related transportation and economic benefits and deficiencies and a program of proposed public-sector investments in the state rail system through 2040.
The plan is expected to be completed by the end of 2014.
