SARTA Hires Consultant to Explore Light Rail (Streetcar) Between Hall of Fame, Downtown Canton

The Stark Area Regional Transit Authority has hired a consultant to study establishing light-rail passenger train service between the Pro Football Hall of Fame and downtown Canton.

Transit CEO Kirt Conrad said the SARTA board last week approved a contract for consultant WSP USA.

Conrad said he will have discussions with WSP over the next week on the scope of the study and the timeline. He expects the consultant will solicit public comments on the proposed project in the spring. And he hopes the consultant can complete the study by December.
