What happens to the transportation recommendations from the Airport Multi-Modal Corridor Project if High-Speed Maglev becomes a reality for the Pittsburgh region?
Port Authority is currently undertaking the Environmental Impact Statement for the Pennsylvania Project High-Speed Maglev Project, which proposes a high-speed rail connection between Pittsburgh International Airport, downtown Pittsburgh, Monroeville and Greensburg. Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) will select either the Pennsylvania Project or a competing project connecting Baltimore and Washington to be the first high-speed maglev system in the United States. The FRA selection is expected in the spring of 2003.
