As a resident of DeKalb County, Georgia, I support the efforts to establish a \"Quiet Corridor\" that covers five railroad crossings along the intown portion of the Seaboard line in DeKalb County. The Intown Seaboard line runs from Hulsey Intermodal Yard to I-285, and it includes at-grade crossings of Dekalb Ave., East Lake Rd., Coventry Rd., Montreal Rd., and Frazier Rd. as well as dozens of affected neighborhoods. The successful implementation of the \"Quiet Corridor\" along the Intown Seaboard line will greatly enhance the quality of life for area residents.
Constant noise pollution from the rail line continues to disrupt the peace of our neighborhoods. I am currently coordinating with local officials to discuss potential infrastructure adjustments for these crossings. Your ongoing interest keeps this issue on the agenda during our discussions.

The steady growth of this petition indicates that our community remains united in its desire for a quieter environment. This momentum confirms that the proposal for a Quiet Corridor is a priority for those living along the Seaboard line.
