High Speed and Intercity Rail

WSP is a leader in the creation of High Speed Rail networks with services ranging from planning to engineering and environmental review to construction management.

High speed and intercity rail really do link cities to the world. Connecting communities and improving transportation between cities, states, and countries make high-speed and intercity passenger rail a true catalyst for economic growth, while providing passengers with a reliable and safe transportation alternative.

High-speed rail (HSR) uses specialized rolling stocks and dedicated tracks, meaning big investments. However, over the years, HSR has become the global standard for energy-efficient transportation linking cities together.

A Leader in HSR Networks

WSP is a leader in the creation of HSR networks worldwide. In Asia, we were involved in the design and implementation of high-speed lines in China, Korea, and Taiwan. In the UK, we were part of the project team for High-Speed 2. In the US, we are involved in all HSR projects linked to the proposed development of a network of over 27,000 km (17,000 miles) by 2030.

California High Speed Rail

WSP is the rail delivery partner for the California High Speed Rail, the  first high-speed rail system planned for implementation in the US.
