Open Letter on ALTO HSR Route Options in Eastern Ontario

By Transport Action Ontario | Intercity Rail and Bus

Mar 14

There have been intensive discussions and concerns in Eastern Ontario about route selection for the ALTO High-Speed Rail proposal. Transport Action Canada has written an open letter to the media summarizing the various route and speed options that have been considered in the past, and identifying other key considerations like maintaining good conventional service and providing impact mitigation.

Our key message is to urge ALTO and Transport Canada to share their cost-benefit analyses and comparative business cases, as this will materially inform the discussions. The public has every right to scrutinize all this information!
