The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) is seeking public feedback and hosting a Feb. 16 virtual rail summit to finalize the Nevada State Rail Plan outlining potential new and enhanced railroad facilities to create a more efficient and sustainable statewide transportation network.
The plan will be finalized after the summit, which will present an overview of plan recommendations and strategies and gather stakeholder and public feedback.
NDOT brought together more than 200 rail, economic development and government leaders to analyze current and future shipping and transportation needs and draft a plan outlining more than 50 potential rail infrastructure projects.
The plan outlines options to improve and integrate rail through local and private sector investment across the state. Rail improvements listed in the plan become eligible for federal grant funding.
