What technologies are being considered?
A broad range of modal technologies were considered during Phase 1. The technologies currently under study for all or part of the corridor are: Regional Rail (such as a Tri-Rail train or self-propelled railcars). Regional Bus (an over-the-road type motorcoach making limited stops within the region). Light Rail Transit (electrical or diesel-propelled railcars operating on their own alignment either at-grade or on aerial structures). Bus Rapid Transit. (modern, express buses operating in their own alignment); and Rail Rapid Transit (such as Metrorail, using trains of electrically-propelled cars on elevated tracks).
