High Speed Passenger Rail Initiative

INDOT is one of nine member states in the Midwest Regional Rail Initiative, an ongoing effort to develop and expand access to an improved passenger rail system in the Midwest. If developed, this system would provide high-speed rail service (80-110 mph) with shorter travel times, increased frequency of service, accessibility and reliability. Other participating states are Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Nebraska and Wisconsin.

Regional and national discussions on rail transportation have resulted in the designation of three high-speed rail routes through Indiana;

  1. Chicago to Cleveland
  2. Chicago to Detroit
  3. Chicago through Indianapolis to Cincinnati and also to Louisville
