Oregon State Rail Plan

The Oregon State Rail Plan explores issues affecting the state's rail freight and passenger system. It assesses both public and private transportation at the state, regional and local level.

Oregon's 2027 State Rail Plan Update

Get Involved

The project team is currently conducting several studies to assess freight and passenger rail service in Oregon. Community input is a vital part of this process, and there will be multiple opportunities for the public to get involved and share feedback while we develop the plan update. Upcoming engagement opportunities include a second online survey, two virtual open houses, and a public hearing before the Oregon Transportation Commission considers adoption of the updated plan.

You can also follow Oregon's Rail Advisory Committee here.

ODOT regularly collaborates with many private and public partners through the Rail Advisory Committee (RAC).

This web-page will be updated regularly. Please check back for future Draft Plan updates and opportunities to participate.
