About this buyer

Plans rail for a state network GDOT's Rail page counts at 4,600 active rail miles — 3,631 of Class I mainline and 1,012 of shortline track across 28 freight railroads, of which 465 miles are GDOT's own — while its State Rail Plan page describes the same network as over 3,000 miles of track, runs the Railroad Crossing Safety programme, administers the Georgia Freight Rail Program (rail enhancement, rail preservation and rail industrial access) and the Locomotive Fuel Tax Program established under O.C.G.A. §48-8-78, and is the FRA Corridor ID sponsor for the Atlanta to Savannah corridor. It is a funder and planner of rail rather than a builder of it: no GDOT passenger rail construction solicitation appears on the Georgia Procurement Registry under any status, and no rail construction letting appears in GDOT's own six-month letting forecast for September 2026 to February 2027.
