Norfolk Southern Invests in Alabama Rail Line

Norfolk Southern is investing 200 million USD to enhance the capacity of the 3B Corridor rail line in Alabama.

The investment will boost connectivity between northern and central Alabama markets and the Port of Mobile, thus facilitating broader access to global destinations. This will support the economic growth of the Southeast region.

Significant capacity improvements will enhance this critical rail corridor

The 3B Corridor serves essential industries, including agriculture, automotive, chemicals, forestry, and steel. The enhancements are poised to start delivering returns in 2025, as they improve rail infrastructure and capacity.

Norfolk Southern President and CEO Alan H. Shaw said:

“Together with our customers, we are anticipating where markets are heading, and positioning to deliver on their supply chain needs now and into the future. These investments will bring immediate returns as they make rail an even more competitive part of our nation’s supply chain and expand our customers’ end-to-end solutions.”

The project involves a mix of terminal and track-based infrastructure upgrades. This will include capacity projects in central and southwest Alabama, customer-specific projects in north Alabama, and yard upgrades in Wilton.

Additionally, a series of grade-crossing improvements will be made throughout the region.
