abstract:The Gateway Project is a proposal to build a high-speed rail corridor to alleviate the bottleneck along the Northeast Corridor (NEC) between Newark, New Jersey, and New York City. If constructed, the project would add 25 train slots during peak periods to the current system used by Amtrak (AMTK) and New Jersey Transit (NJT), which has reached full capacity.
The Northern Gatewayproject actually involves the construction of two pipelines between Bruderheim, Alberta (about 60 kilometres northeast of Edmonton) to Kitimat, B.
