Enhance Passenger Experience in The Corridor

Faster service with shorter average journey times by rail between major cities that are no longer than:
4h10 between Toronto and Montréal
2h55 between Toronto and Ottawa
1h45 between Ottawa and Montréal
2h50 between Montréal and Québec City

More reliable service with improved on-time performance within the Corridor (up to 95 per cent on dedicated tracks from an average of 68 per cent in 2019) • More frequent departures (e.g., minimum 12 departures per day) between Major Cities

Add new services to Peterborough, Laval and Trois-RivièresMaintain connectivity between cities currently serviced by meeting or exceeding minimum service requirements to be established by the Government of Canada/the Project Authority for Local Services

Improve integration with other modes of transportation (e.g., regional and local public transit, non-Corridor services, airports) by engaging collaboratively with municipal stakeholders, transit authorities and other orders of government or service providers
Provide a passenger rail system that is significantly less dependent on sharing tracks with Host Railways

Significantly Increase Intercity Rail Passengers

Increase annual passenger trips in the Corridor to at least 17 million by 2059 (up from 4.8 million in 2019), including both HFR Services and Local Services
Operational and fleet strategies include increased annual seat capacity to enable expected growth in passengers
