More and more, metropolitan areas are turning to rail commuter service to solve growing commutation requirements and reducing highway congestion and pollution. GLOBAL TRANSPORTATION CONSULTANCY is actively involved in meeting these challenges. We specialize in medium and smaller cities and regions, usually those now lacking rail facilities but who recognize the urgent need for them. Our principals have senior management commuter rail experience. We interact effectively with the many diverse interest groups usually involved in rail transit to propose realistic, cost effective and timely solutions – from ‘heavy’ rail commuter operations on freight railroad trackage to new ‘light’ rail operation on dedicated rights of way.
