Abstract:This document, as its title states, is an Options Report for the entire corridor. Until now, portions of
the corridor have been analyzed separately, and improvement strategies developed for distinct
segments. This report presents an overview of the whole corridor for the first time. It necessarily
reflects the fact that the required improvements in some sectors of the corridor are understood
better than in others, and that near-term improvement needs are understood better than long-term
needs. In particular, the specific infrastructure improvements, and their estimated costs, can be
expected to change as the environmental and commercial impacts are better understood. As the analysis
progresses, the final version of the Options Report will evolve to include a better match between
cost-effective investment in railway infrastructure, and the service requirements of the passenger
and freight users.
