Abstract:The Vermont Agency of Transportation has prepared a Rail Capital Investment Policy Plan (RCIPP) for the purpose of providing guidance for the functioning of Vermont?s rail System. The report represents the culmination of eight months of work by the study participants. During this period, interviews were held with rail operators and selected shippers; background data and reports were reviewed and analyzed; and pertinent criteria, policies, and evaluation measures were formulated. This report is structured to present the reader with an overview of rail operations and programs in Vermont in terms of the state perspective, and in terms of the rail system?s relation to regional and national issues and concerns. Specific attention is given to state rail programs and financing. A set of goals, criteria and supporting policies is presented, incorporating extensive input from the Study Advisory Committee. Reflecting the instructions of the General Assembly, the report concludes with the presentation of several specific topics pertaining to rail services and rail-highway grade crossing maintenance concerns.
