Disputes about the relocation of railway lines or rerouting of traffic in urban areas

The Agency can help resolve disputes between railways and government authorities about the relocation of railway lines or the rerouting of railway traffic in urban areas.

The Agency could order the railway to do things like:

• remove railway structures
• build new facilities;
• stop operating on certain lines; or
• allow other railway companies onto trackage in urban areas.
