Sustainable alternative transportation between Quebec City and Toronto
Involves dedicated tracks along the Toronto-Ottawa-Montreal-Quebec City corridor and the purchase of new trains to provide service along the route.
Fast facts
This project aims to deliver a passenger train service with more frequency, reduced trip times and improved service reliability.
It will help create a more commercially successful, modern rail service that supports economic development in the most populous part of the country. The new, frequent service is expected to reduce vehicle emissions as passengers will leave their vehicles at home to avoid road congestion.
Our team will collaborate on project due diligence, financial advisory services and help fully develop the proposed project’s scope of work.
