Participate in Wisconsin’s Long-Range Rail Plan

Madison, WI – The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) has developed a brief online questionnaire to provide an opportunity for the public to express their opinions about the future of rail in Wisconsin. Responses to the questionnaire will contribute to development of policies and recommendations for the Wisconsin Rail Plan 2030, the state’s long-range plan focused on freight, intercity passenger and commuter rail transportation.

The questionnaire seeks opinions on Wisconsin’s top rail trends, the issues affecting rail and the future level of state-funded investment.  The transportation department will use the results of the questionnaire to help make decisions about the future of freight, passenger and commuter rail in Wisconsin. The questionnaire is located at the plan Web site.

Public participation is encouraged throughout plan development.  For more information on Wisconsin’s statewide long-range rail plan and how to participate contact:  Wisconsin Rail Plan 2030, WisDOT Bureau of Planning & Economic Development, P.O.
