State Looks At
Rapid Transit
Discussion of a high speed
land surface transportation
system linking Atlanta and
Macon leaves a number of
questions unanswered.
The first question is what
exactly is meant by high
speed land speed? “We’re not
ruling out anything,’’
explains Peter Ward, Chief of
the Mass Transportation Unit
of the Georgia Department of
Transportation.
OPEN MINDS
“We just don’t think we
should limit ourselves on
anything. Of course this is
only a feasibility study to
determine if there is a need.
But, our projections indicate
three million people will be
served by some method of
transportation in The
Atlanta-Macon Corridor by
the end of this decade.
“The transportation could
be express busses on Inter
state-75, or a train, or maybe
some exotic type rail travel.
It’s too early to determine.’’
FLORIDA STUDY
Mr. Ward explained that
feasibility studies have been
launched in Florida for a
connector from Tampa-St.
Petersburg to Daytona Beach
via Orlando. The, results he
admits: “We don’t know and I
suspect it is too early yet for
them to determine their
findings. The rail travel

New York has been
extremely successful. I am
not sure we can compare our
situation to that, yet.”
Mr. Ward emphasized that
it was not certain by any
means what if any high speed
surface transportation meth
od would be employed. He
said “We suspect there may
be a need, and let me
emphasize SUSPECT.
“The Atlanta-Macon cor
ridor is ‘ fast-growing, really
phenomenal to my mind. I
think we have a chance to
come up with something
innovative here, and we want
to know what the people
think.”
The idea of mass land
trarfsportation takes on even
greater meaning in this era of
threatening energy shortages
and limited fuel supplies.
The thinking is doubtlessly
long range, but planners do
not consider it beyond the
realm of possibility
ENERGY PRIORITY
World energy analysts
envision no lessening of the
shortage now gripping
petroleum producers. The
idea of railing commercial
transportation is possibly
quite near in population
centers through the nation,
particularly where large
masses are moved daily to
occupations requiring travel.
The Atlanta-Macon popula
tion corridor is projected as
the South’s commercial hub.
