DO THE MATH
For the $351 million it is expected to cost to have an Atlanta-Macon commuter rail line at a length of 103 miles, the state could build only 9.1 miles of HOV lanes or 18 miles of bus rapid transit.
Transportation/Land Use studies linking investment in new rail infrastructure to new development report that, on average, $6 is spent in new development for every $1 of rail investment. So the Atlanta-Macon commuter rail investment has the potential of spawning over 2 billion dollars in new development.
