High-Speed Rail

Leadership: Richard Riley, Community Volunteer

VISION 2030 seeks to study the implementation of a high-speed rail service linking Gainesville with Athens and the University of Georgia, Atlanta and Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, Emory University and Georgia Tech. Each of these destinations is only a 30-minute trip from Gainesville.
Gainesville Bypass is the idea of highway bypasses around Gainesville, and traffic on downtown’s Green Street has lessoned considerably.
