The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) and the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) will hold virtual meetings Nov. 16 and 17 to receive public opinion on a draft of the state's rail plan.
The plan identifies a vision for the future of rail transportation, sets goals and objectives for achieving the vision and documents and evaluates passenger- and freight-rail needs over the next 25 years to guide investments.
"Freight and passenger rail are vibrant components of our state's transportation network," said PennDOT Secretary Yassmin Gramian in a press release. "We invite residents and stakeholders to help us shape the plan by taking part in the virtual meetings."
Attendees can register for the meetings on the state rail plan website. Pennsylvania updates its state rail plan every four years to meet FRA requirements.
