For months, Alto has met with thousands of people and hundreds of organizations across the corridor. One important finding is a shared desire to develop the project while minimizing impacts on farmers and others who could be affected by the future railway alignment. Behind the corridors under study are families, farmland that has been cultivated for generations and businesses that support our regions. We are developing the project with their realities in mind.
High-speed rail is the best choice for Canada. Alto and Cadence are working with the communities involved to develop a project that takes their realities into account.
High-speed rail is the best choice for Canada
For the train to truly change the way people travel, it has to be much faster, while also being frequent, reliable and affordable. That's what high speed does: it reduces travel times enough to offer a real alternative to cars and planes.
In addition to significantly reducing travel times, high-speed rail will have major socio-economic benefits, bringing cities closer together while giving workers greater access to jobs and businesses greater access to talent. This is an investment for the coming decades, with benefits that go far beyond transportation.
