Fiscal Detail and Notes
The bill requires, to the extent not already performed, the Department of Transportation and the Northern New England Passenger Rail Authority to study improvements to the passenger rail service between Brunswick and Boston. The department and the Authority believe the work performed by the Authority regarding these issues meets the purpose of this study. However, if it is determined that it does not, the department estimates the cost of performing the work to be between $300,000 and $400,000.
