DeKalb County has launched a new website to engage residents for support of a rail line in the I-20 corridor as part of next year’s transportation tax referendum.

The site, www.Rally4RailNow.com, is gathering names from those who want the project included in the regional sales tax vote. It also will list upcoming meetings and other ways residents can get involved.

The I-20 project calls for extending the current MARTA line from the Indian Creek Station to at least Wesley Chapel Road in south DeKalb.
