The 18‐mile corridor would primarily run along Conrail’s freight alignment, which is roughly parallel to Woodbury‐Glassboro Road and NJ Route 45. The northern segment in Camden would follow a new right‐of‐way adjacent to I‐676 before entering an in‐street alignment to reach Walter Rand Transportation Center. This alternative would operate on new dedicated tracks and/or sharing portions of Conrail track with temporal separation. Approximately fourteen (14) new stations would be located along the alignment. Transportation System Management (TSM) Alternative Consists of enhancements and upgrades to the existing transportation system to address needs and purpose of the project at less capital cost. Upgrades can include bus route restructuring and headway reductions, express and limited‐stop service, intersection improvements, and other limited infrastructure improvements that enhance the transportation system. No Action Alternative Future conditions without the GCL Project. Includes any planned improvements that have been identified and are expected to be implemented. This alternative serves as a means of comparing and evaluating the impacts and benefits of the GCL alternatives.
