Freight Rail

Kimley-Horn provides comprehensive freight rail planning, environmental, design, and program management services that meet the unique challenges and demands of the freight rail industry. We understand the complexities involved in planning and designing freight rail systems while maintaining the reliability and performance needed to keep freight moving.

Key members of our team spent decades working for Class I railroads prior to bringing their experience to Kimley-Horn to develop innovative solutions that optimize rail operations, improve safety, and enhance efficiency. Whether you are looking to build a new freight rail line, a rail expansion project, or modernize existing infrastructure, our team is equipped to handle every aspect of the planning and design process because we uniquely understand the freight rail business.

No two freight rail projects are alike, and Kimley-Horn delivers customized solutions tailored to your specific needs. We collaborate with stakeholders to understand their goals and challenges, allowing us to develop and implement strategies that deliver exceptional results.

Our team has a deep understanding of the financial landscape and leverages extensive experience in navigating federal, state, and local funding opportunities. We work closely with our clients to identify potential grants, loans, and other financial mechanisms that can help bring their projects to fruition. By crafting compelling proposals and demonstrating the economic and community benefits of each project, we help clients access the critical funds needed to advance their freight rail initiatives.
