This meeting is for the public to learn more about the Gorham-Westbrook-Portland Rapid Transit Study.

The study examines the need for and benefits from various alignments and modes of rapid transit in the Portland area, linking the municipalities of Gorham, Westbrook, and Portland. The study is based on recommendations from Transit Tomorrow (the Greater Portland region’s long-range public transportation plan) and is being led by the Greater Portland Council of Governments in concert with the City of Portland, the City of Westbrook, the Town of Gorham, Northern New England Passenger Rail Authority, Maine Department of Transportation, Greater Portland METRO, and other agency and community stakeholders.

This rapid transit study will look at several rail and bus rapid transit alternatives for connecting Gorham, Westbrook, and Portland, and will document the expected benefits and impacts of the alternatives.
