3:16 A report released this week by two regional planning agencies makes a business case for proposed passenger rail improvements in Massachusetts and Connecticut. An analysis projects that by making upgrades to the Hartford Line and building east-west rail in Massachusetts, the metro Hartford-Springfield area would gain 20,000-40,000 professional jobs over 30 years with a corresponding growth in economic output of $47 billion-$84 billion. Even at the highest estimated cost for the rail projects $9 billion – it would be a 10 -1 return on investment, said Kim Robinson, executive director of the Pioneer Valley Planning Commission. It is clear the time to re-establish robust passenger rail is now, Robinson said.

SPRINGFIELD The Springfield/Hartford area has missed out on 130,000 new jobs since 1990, jobs that could have come here if the region had the commuter rail service enjoyed by other East Coast cities.
“That’s the major differentiating factor, the availability of rail,” said Jessica Jones, senior analyst for the engineering firm AECOM.
Improving rail service from New York City to Boston through Hartford, Springfield and Worcester could cost $6.4 billion to $9.4 billion over a 10-year-buildout. But that expenditure would yield $47 billion to $84 billion in new gross regional product over 30 years, according to a study AECOM prepared for Connecticut’s Capital Region Council of Governments and the Pioneer Valley Planning Commission in Springfield.
Agawam infrastructure study to benefit from unused COVID funds
Updated Mar 02, 2021;
AGAWAM One of the many projects put on hold during the COVID-19 pandemic, a study of infrastructure needs in North Agawam, is on the docket again.
Nearly a year after replacing the infrastructure study with a pandemic business aid fund, town officials will ask the state Department of Housing and Community Development to let them reverse that decision and proceed with the study.
“We really think this is an important project for the town,” said Town Planner Marc Strange at a public hearing last week. “There’s a lot of issues in that area.”
