Amtrak Service - Feedback Needed

Harrisburg - PennDOT is inviting the public to comment on the findings of a study identifying potential improvements and associated challenges and resources for passenger rail service between Harrisburg and Pittsburgh. 

 

The Keystone West High Speed Rail Feasibility Report and Preliminary Service Department Plan outlines potential infrastructure and operational improvements and what service benefits those improvements could provide. 

 

Please take a moment to review the full story on the HCBI website and utilize the links to provide your personal comments/feedback. The more PennDot hears from people about the importance of rail access the more they will take project improvements seriously. Please feel free to share this information with anyone you know who might have an interest in Amtrak Service.

The study can be viewed at www.PlantheKeystone.com on the "Keystone West" page under "Resources." Public feedback will be accepted through Tuesday, March 31, by emailing [email protected]
