Digital Discussion: LIRR Third Track Program

The Long Island Rail Road is the oldest commuter rail system in the United States. While there are several distinct routes and branches, the center route is referred to as the Main Line. The LIRR Expansion Project is a $2 billion initiative to add a third track to a 9.8-mile section of the Main Line route between Floral Park and Hicksville.

The Third Track project seeks to decrease congestion, increase efficiency, improve safety and enhance quality of life for adjacent communities.

The Transit Museum is pleased to welcome Leslie Mesnick and Louise Calfiero of The Calladium Group for an overview of the expansion project, ongoing construction and major milestones of the project.
