Chattanooga is known as “Freight Alley” - as we’ve been reminded during the pandemic, from supply chains disruptions to gas prices.
Thrive Regional Partnership and Georgia Tech are developing a new research hub to better understand freight capacity and multi-modal transportation across the tri-state area, so governments and businesses can make better decisions on infrastructure.
Connie Vaughan - government relations manager for McKee Foods - chairs Thrive Regional Partnership.
Shannon Milsaps is the director of operations for Thrive.
