An idea to build monorail-like mass transit throughout Henry County was first presented to the general public during a town hall meeting in September 2018, but that proposal will not move further following an investigation by the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

The AJC is reporting that Transit X entrepreneur Mike Stanley changed his name in 2014 because of a previous conviction of indecent assault and battery on children under the age of 14.
