TRANS-NEWFOUNDLAND CORRIDOR TRANSPORTATION STUDY

Studies were made of virtually every phase of transportation in Newfoundland. Included is Rail Freight and Passenger Services (RRIS 25 09979). Concluding that there are transportation system shortcomings, it is recommended that improvements in passenger and freight transportation and facilities be considered in terms of a low-investment alternative and a higher investment which would appear to be economically justifiable. The Canadian National Railways' rail freight operation would not need major investment in either case.
