Overview
The Mid-Atlantic Rail Operations Study (MAROps) is a joint initiative of the I-95 Corridor Coalition, five member states (New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and
Virginia), and three railroads (Amtrak, CSX, and Norfolk Southern). The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) participate as advisors. Over a two-year period, the MAROps participants crafted a 20-year, $6.2 billion program of rail improvements aimed at improving north-south rail transportation for
both passengers and freight in the Mid-Atlantic region and helping reduce truck traffic on the region’s overburdened highway system.
