The idea of a high-speed rail link between Atlanta and Chattanooga will be the topic of three meetings this week. It is a proposed 110-mile magnetic levitation system that would span the distance between Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport and Chattanooga. A major concern with the proposed rail line is how to pay for it. Meetings this week will include Department of Transportation officials, as well as consultants familiar with high speed rail service. The first meeting is today in Atlanta, followed by meetings tomorrow in Rome, and Thursday in Chattanooga.
