Transportation

Implement a Comprehensive Statewide Transportation System.

My focus on economic development for Georgia also includes improving the transportation infrastructure of our state.   Transportation is more than a quality of life issue, it directly impacts our economy. Given this positive and important impact on economic activity, it is vital that we approach transportation in Georgia with focused and thoughtful investments.

Our state government needs to focus its transportation dollars and funding sources to ensure that our transportation infrastructure provides our economy with the infrastructure it needs for goods-movement and congestion relief.  As Governor, I will support prioritizing transportation infrastructure that provides a long-term return on investment and directly benefits economic activity for our state.

By approaching transportation as a statewide issue, prioritizing projects that have the greatest return on investment, and improving our funding from federal sources, we can ensure that our transportation investments help Georgia businesses to thrive and create more jobs.
