DC/Baltimore High Speed Maglev Train Open House Tonight At MLK Library (901 G St NW)
We learned of an open house this evening at the MLK Central Library (901 G St NW) between 5 pm and 7 pm where members of the public can ask questions about the high speed maglev train proposed to run between Washington, DC and Baltimore, MD. Washington DC and Penn Quarter are a part of the study area. The train would take 15 minutes to travel between Washington and Baltimore and it would have a stop at BWI. The Maryland DOT was awarded $28 million to study the feasibility of the project.
From the website:
The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) are preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to evaluate the potential impacts of constructing and operating a high-speed superconducting magnetic levitation (SCMAGLEV) system proposed by the private company, Baltimore Washington Rapid Rail (BWRR), between Washington, DC, and Baltimore, Maryland, with an intermediate stop at BWI Airport.
The FRA and MDOT will hold a series of Open Houses on the SCMAGLEV project. You are invited to attend an Open House anytime between the hours listed. No formal presentation will be given. At the Open House you can:
• Meet the project team
• Learn about the project
• Provide comments on the scope of the EIS
• Share ideas and ask questions
