Passenger Rail
The Front Range Passenger Rail (FRPR) District is a new taxing district created by the Colorado Legislature to study, design, operate, and maintain a new passenger rail line that stretches from Pueblo to Fort Collins, and will include Wyoming and New Mexico in the future.

Freight
Efficient freight movement is a key component of a well-functioning transportation system. Commodity flows using the various freight modes available in the Pueblo region support industry, manufacturing, agriculture, and retail, and they also provide a framework for the growth of commerce and trade. The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) and the Pueblo Area Council of Governments (PACOG) are equally responsible for ensuring that freight planning is incorporated into the transportation planning process, both to fulfill planning requirements and to build the economic strength of the state and region.
