The line has been proposed to restore service to Boston through the towns of Taunton, Berkley, Fall River, Freetown, and New Bedford, on the south coast of Massachusetts. When finished, it will become part of the Providence/Stoughton Line. It would restore some of the lines of the Old Colony Railroad. After previous service was discontinued in 1958, the project surfaced in the 1980s. A full planning process was held from 1990 until its suspension in 2002. Planning restarted from the beginning in 2007; the Final Environmental Impact Statement was issued in August 2013. Several separately funded projects like bridge reconstructions have been undertaken, including major tie replacement beginning in November 2013, and $2.3 billion was appropriated to the project in an April 2014 state bill. ==Project history== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「South Coast Rail」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
