Marietta to consider trolley study

Marietta Mayor Steve Tumlin is asking the city council to approve a study on the viability of a tourist trolley that would take visitors to museums and historical sites around the city. The council will discuss a trolley study at committee meetings 5 p.m. Wednesday at City Hall, 205 Lawrence St.

The study will be paid by the car rental tax through the Marietta Visitors Bureau. Tumlin’s goal is to have a trolley running by December.
