1 Collaborative and Participary Planng of The Future of High Speed and Commuter Rail on the Northeast Corridor Joseph H. Boardman President and CEO, Amtrak

14 Begng the process, the visiong, and the conversation We have a vision but vision needs be matched a plan that is: Attaable Affordable Needs of Partners Generates returns quickly Provides the public with a useful transportation solution that builds support for the completed project Amtrak has identified the first two stages of a plan: NEC Gateway Project New York-Philadelphia segment These improvements will provide the NEC with the capacity it needs for a century come 13
15 Openg the Door: The NEC Gateway Project Keysne of the plan creatg capacity where it s most needed Involves major capacity expansion Add extra tracks between Newark and Penn Station Build two new tunnels under the Hudson River Build Moynihan Station Add extra commuter rail capacity at Penn Station When commuter services get vestment, high speed services get operational fluidity 14
16 New York-Philadelphia dedicated HSR Le The mimum operable segment concept: Existg le would be improved raise speeds 160 mph (short term) Separate HSR le could be built provide dedicated 220mph express service (mid- long term) Each improvement will generate Initial rounds of improvement will greatly crease capacity Subsequent rounds will crease speed, provide jumpg-off pot for later rounds of HSR construction 15
17 What do we need? A solution for the future not a strategy from the past Capacity for growth An frastructure improvement that will last for a century A strategy that will safeguard our mobility and conserve oil Rail is the progressive, hightech, energy-efficient solution for morrow 16
