# WSDOT Seeks Input on I-5 Rail Corridor

The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) is seeking public input through November 13, 2026, on a potential high-speed rail corridor connecting British Columbia and Portland along the I-5 corridor. The effort is part of long-range transportation planning, not a solicitation. The article also references a current **$150 million** WSDOT high-speed rail study, but provides no contract number, award date, or procurement contact.

- Public input closes November 13, 2026 (**6 days remaining**); interested firms and stakeholders can provide input on the corridor planning effort.
- Companies should distinguish this engagement from an active procurement: no solicitation or contract opportunity is announced.
- Firms in transportation planning, design, environmental services, and infrastructure can use WSDOT’s I-5 Master Plan and Cascadia High-Speed Rail work as the identified sources for future planning and project opportunities.
