Supplemental Information

History: The data is based in part on historic railway data maintained by the Department of Transport (DoT) Current Design Issues: The corridor dataset is a simplification of the rail network. Some rail corridor contain a single track and other corridors contain multiple parallel tracks. In areas where the rail network is dense, such as around the ports precinct, representing the precinct as a corridor is not a true representation of the network. The data includes all major active railway corridors as advised by rail experts in the department. However, the status of some freight corridors may change. There are some sections of the rail network which are referred to as under "minimum maintenance" and may be used irregularly. The amount of rail activity on some freight corridors is seasonal and will depend on the agricultural harvest. Related Documents: None
