What is the purpose of the “NH Capitol Corridor” Project?
The Capital Corridor Project aims to re-instate passenger rail between Boston and the New Hampshire communities of Nashua, Merrimack, Bedford, Manchester, Hooksett and the state capitol at Concord.

Who is behind the scheme?
The advocates of the scheme are the New Hampshire Railroad Revitalization Association (NHRRA). We support the New Hampshire Rail Transit Authority (NHRTA) which is a legislative body created by Governor John Lynch in 2007 to manage the re-introduction of significant passenger and freight rail projects
in the state. NHRTA sees the NH Capitol Corridor project as its initial
significant project.

NHRRA is seeking to support NHRTA through gaining additional support, and
co-promotion from the towns and cities along the proposed route. We are also seeking recognition and support for the project from Pan Am Railways, Amtrak and the Massachusetts Bay Transport Association (MBTA) who will likely be important players in the operation of the line.

Who will give the scheme the go-ahead?
The scheme will be promoted to the State of New Hampshire through NHRTA for consideration by the House. Support from all leading state politicians including
the Governor’s Office is essential.
