City Reps –

On June 29 at 1:00 PM ET Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer will present The U.S.
Conference of Mayors new high-speed rail study at a BusinessWeek event
entitled *Putting America Back on the Fast Track* (registration is enclosed
in the email below).

The U.S. Conference of Mayors study on *The Economic Impacts of High-Speed
Rail on Cities and their Metropolitan Areas* (usmayors.org/highspeedrail)
positively assesses the economic impact of high-speed intercity rail in the
four cities of Los Angeles, Chicago, Orlando, and Albany (NY).

The report examined job creation, the effects of improved market access,
greater connectivity, travel time savings, as well as increased income and
business sales. Study findings show that high-speed rail in the U.S. could
significantly increase jobs and business sales if fully implemented as
planned by 2035.  Higher potential impacts were noted when travel times
between cities were reduced to under three hours.

The Conference’s report was prepared by the Economic Development Research
Group and sponsored by Siemens.

Please email me with questions.

Thanks,
Ron
