A high speed rail line could take people from Atlanta to Charlotte in as little as two hours, racing across South Carolina at speeds up to 220 mph, according to the proposal.
Transportation planners are looking at three possible routes across upstate South Carolina for the project, which could cost anywhere from $2 billion to more than $15 billion as part of a broader long-term plan for high speed rail across the Southeast.
