As such, the Company offers a complete range of solutions, including rolling stock, systems, services as well as signalling for passenger and freight railway transportation. It benefits from a growing market with solid fundamentals. The key market drivers are urbanisation, environmental concerns, economic growth, governmental spending and digital transformation. In this context, Alstom has been able to develop both a local and global presence that sets it apart from many of its competitors, while offering proximity to customers and great industrial flexibility. Its range of solutions, one of the most complete and integrated on the market, and its position as a technological leader, place Alstom in a unique situation to benefit from the worldwide growth in the rail transport market. Lastly, in order to generate profitable growth, Alstom focuses on operational excellence and its product mix evolution. INDUSTRY CHARACTERISTICS MARKET DRIVERS The rail transportation market is supported by solid long term drivers. Sustainable development Urbanisation creates a growing demand for infrastructure, rolling stock (especially for integrated solutions) and signalling notably in emerging Greenhouse gas emissions, impact of air pollution on public health, countries. Mature markets, on the other hand, are mainly supported by climate change, recycling, recovery, energy efficiency and noise projects aiming at updating and modernising existing infrastructure and constitute some of the most significant environmental and sustainable rolling stock, as well as by growing environmental concerns. development concerns currently voiced by populations and politicians. Today more than 90% of the world population leaves in areas where Urbanisation air pollution exceeds the threshold recommended by the World Health Organisation while CO2 emissions from transport continue to grow. The combination of both economic and demographic growth should Based on these criteria, rail transportation offers higher performance entice a growing number of people to live in cities. By 2050, world levels than other transportation modes, which should have a positive population should exceed 9 billion inhabitants, of which nearly 70% will impact on the evolution of the rail transportation market. However, reside in urban areas (source: UNFPA, United Nations Population Fund). some challenges will have to be faced in these various sectors in order This trend towards urbanisation is particularly strong in China, India and to meet ambitious emission reduction goals within set time frames. In in the developing countries of Africa and Latin America. addition, if concerns regarding these matters are significant in mature This development triggers the growing saturation of airports, roads markets, they are gradually gaining more clout in emerging countries. and existing railway infrastructure. In this situation, railways typically In the run-up to COP 21, the European Union issued its commitment offer the easiest, safest and cleanest solution as a real and competitive to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40% compared to 1990 levels alternative to road or air transportation. by 2030, in-line with its global ambition to reduce greenhouse gas Additionally, especially in developed countries, the population is emissions by 80% to 95% below 1990 levels by 2050.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Phase II Amtrak paint schemes or "Phases" (referred to by Amtrak), are a series of livery applied to the outside of their rolling stock in the United States. The livery phases appeared as different designs, with a majority using a red, white, and blue (the colors of the American flag) format, except for promotional trains, state partnership routes, and the Acela "splotches" phase. The first Amtrak Phases started to emerge around 1972, shortly after Amtrak's formation.

  • Transportation: Request for Passenger Rail Bonding -- Agenda Item II
    Legislative Fiscal Bureau One East Main, Suite 301 • Madison, WI 53703 • (608) 266-3847 • Fax: (608) 267-6873 Email: [email protected] • Website: http://legis.wisconsin.gov/lfb October 31, 2019 TO: Members Joint Committee on Finance FROM: Bob Lang, Director SUBJECT: Department of Transportation: Request for Passenger Rail Bonding -- Agenda Item II REQUEST On October 3, 2019, the Department of Transportation (DOT) submitted a request under s. 85.061 (3)(b) of the statutes for approval to use $13,248,100 BR in GPR-supported, general obligation bonding from DOT's passenger rail route development appropriation to fund the required state match for a recently awarded Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) grant for the purchase of six single-level coach cars and three cab-coach cars to be placed into service in the Milwaukee- Chicago Hiawatha corridor. BACKGROUND DOT is required to administer a rail passenger route development program funded from a transportation fund continuing appropriation (SEG) and a general fund-supported, general obligation bonding appropriation (BR). From these sources, DOT may fund capital costs related to Amtrak service extension routes (the Hiawatha service, for example) or other rail service routes between the cities of Milwaukee and Madison, Milwaukee and Green Bay, Milwaukee and Chicago, Madison and Eau Claire, and Madison and La Crosse. Under the program, DOT is not allowed to use any bond proceeds unless the Joint Finance Committee (JFC) approves the use of the proceeds and, with respect to any allowed passenger route development project, the Department submits evidence to JFC that Amtrak, or the applicable railroad, has agreed to provide rail passenger service on that route.
