  • New Haven Hartford Springfield Commuter Rail Implementation Study
    Recommended Action New Haven Hartford Springfield Commuter Rail Implementation Study New Haven Hartford Springfield Commuter Rail Implementation Study Recommended Action The Connecticut Department of Transportation (ConnDOT) is currently conducting a study to develop an implementation plan for commuter rail service between New Haven and Hartford, CT, and Springfield, MA. This document is a summary of the start-up service proposed by the study Steering Committee. The study documentation and proposed recommendation will be presented to the public in November 2004 and comments will be received through December 15, 2004. A final report, which will respond to public comments and include an assessment of equipment type, potential financial resources and implementation schedule, will subsequently be prepared and published in early 2005. Before a set of implementation alternatives were developed, two scenarios, a "minimum" and "maximum" build, were identified as two extremes in possible service on the line. Using the data from these two initial alternatives, a set of four possible service implementation alternatives were created for initial startup of the service along with a menu of options that could be added to the service either immediately or over time. An alternatives report was produced to document these potential alternatives for initial implementation of commuter rail service and can be found on the study website at www.nhhsrail.com. Upon review of the alternatives presented in the alternatives report, the study team and the Steering Committee have recommended an action for initial commuter rail service on the line. The start-up service recommended by the Steering Committee is based upon the Bi-State service option.

  • 2010 NEC Infrastructure Master Plan
    [THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK] March 24, 2010 Thomas Carper Joseph H. Boardman Chairman of the Board President and Chief Executive Officer National Railroad Passenger Corporation National Railroad Passenger Corporation 60 Massachusetts Avenue, N.E. 60 Massachusetts Avenue, N.E. Washington, DC 20002 Washington, DC 20002 Dear Messrs. Carper and Boardman: As members of the Amtrak Northeast Corridor (NEC) Infrastructure Master Plan Policy Group, the twelve northeast states and the District of Columbia have worked cooperatively and collaboratively with Amtrak and the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) to develop and review the Amtrak Northeast Corridor Railroad Infrastructure Master Plan (Master Plan). Started in 2007 and refined over three years, the Master Plan is a first. It is the first passenger rail infrastructure plan to incorporate a regional, corridor-wide perspective of the NEC Main Line and all its feeder lines. It is the first planning process to involve all the northeast states and the District of Columbia with Amtrak. It is the first to consider the plans and infrastructure needs of all the NEC users – intercity, commuter and freight. This foundational document identifies an initial baseline of infrastructure improve ments needed to maintain the current NEC system in a state of good repair; integrate intercity, commuter and freight service plans; and move the NEC forward to meet the expanded service, reliability, frequency, and trip time improvements that are envisioned by the northeast states and the District. Therefore, we are pleased to endorse the collaborative planning process and Amtrak’s Infrastructure Master Plan Final Report. The Master Plan is the first in a series of planning activities that must be undertaken if an expanded NEC – as part of an integrated, intermodal regional transportation system – is to support future economic growth and environmental and energy goals.
