What is the Pennsylvania Project?
The Pennsylvania High-Speed Maglev project is an approximately 54-mile maglev line connecting Pittsburgh International Airport, Downtown Pittsburgh and Monroeville and Greensburg, Pennsylvania, with multi-modal stations at these locations. The entire trip, from the Airport to Greensburg, would take approximately 35 minutes including stops. The $3.7 billion project is estimated to generate up to 10,000 temporary jobs and approximately 1,000 permanent jobs in the region. These estimates do not include spin-off jobs from enhanced tourism and the high-tech business climate. Many opportunities include manufacturing and fabrication jobs related to an anticipated need for 200,000 tons of United States produced plate steel required to build the guideway.
