The Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) is considering novel P3 to improve, operate and maintain approximately 92 miles of freight rail lines on the state’s Eastern Shore. The state collected input and held meetings with industry in April via a Request for Information, and a procurement is expected to begin with an RFQ as early as May.
The state appears to be interested in completing any procurement and getting a concessionaire onboard quite quickly: the contract that MDOT is currently using to manage the rail corridors is due to expire at the end of 2025.
