Texas Statewide Rail Plan, TxDOT

 

The Texas Statewide Rail Plan, originally approved in 2010, provides overall goals for rail service; details rail’s contribution to the state; and lays out a long-range rail investment program in freight and passenger infrastructure. Stakeholder input is vital to developing a wide-ranging plan incorporating diverse interests, and the involvement process will bring together government agencies; railroads of all classes; freight rail customers and suppliers; rural rail transportation districts and other rail agencies; public transportation providers; and the general public. NLA leads public involvement efforts to update the Texas Rail Plan using surveys and other online engagement tools to reach rail stakeholders throughout Texas.
