The Georgia Legislature wrapped up its work last month but not before approving legislation to address the movement of freight.
Attention to freight movement
Over the past year, leading lawmakers have given attention to the issue of freight movement throughout the state.
The Georgia Commission on Freight & Logistics has been meeting since last summer to come up with plans to reduce traffic congestion and enhance freight movement. The panel – made up of state lawmakers, local government officials, logistics professionals and other leaders of organizations and state agencies – was established by a 2019 legislative resolution.
