The Northeast Corridor Commission’s mission is to bring the states, commuter agencies, Amtrak, and US DOT together to modernize and improve the Northeast Corridor rail system through increased collaboration, transparency, and accountability. Through this partnership, the Commission’s members can achieve more together than by working alone.

Penn Station is the busiest rail complex in the Western Hemisphere. During the peak evening hour there are 100 train movements, happening once every 36 seconds on average. To make that volume of movement happen, train operators going in and out of Penn use one of three different operational techniques to get passengers in and out of the station efficiently. RPA and the Build Gateway Now coalition explore how it all works in our latest explainer video:
In FY25, #NortheastCorridor agencies are investing $6.4B across 90 programs and 243 projects along the #EastCoast.

Today’s announcement of $1.5B for the #NortheastCorridor is great news! #BipartisanInfrastructureLaw?
?? Today, FRA announced another historic investment in passenger rail through the Bipartisan Infrastructure with nearly $1.5 billion in Fed-State NEC grants for 19 projects along the Northeast Corridor. ? Projects announced will replace aging catenary structures susceptible to failures that contribute to travel delays, improve several signal systems necessary to increase capacity, operating speeds, and safety, and support planning activities to expand Washington Union Station in the Nation’s capital, among other projects, to further reduce the state-of-good-repair backlog on the corridor. ? Today’s announcement builds on more than $16.4 billion in Fed-State NEC grants announced by FRA in 2023 for projects along America’s busiest rail corridor. Combined with those projects to upgrade NEC tunnels, bridges, and tracks, the improvements announced today will help minimize disruptions and delays, allow for increased speeds and provide more reliable service for the hundreds of thousands of riders who use the NEC every day. https://lnkd.in/gxdY6HCF
