The Northeast Corridor Commission
The Northeast Corridor Commission was authorized by Congress in 2008 (49 U.S.C. § 24905) to develop coordinated strategies to improve the Northeast’s core rail network in recognition of the inherent challenges of planning, financing, and implementing major infrastructure improvements that cross multiple jurisdictions. The expectation is that by coming together to take collective responsibility for the NEC, Commission member agencies will achieve a level of success that far exceeds the potential reach of any individual organization.
