&lt;p&gt;Amtrak is working with the Federal Railroad Administration, state and local partners, and host railroads to extend daily Amtrak &lt;i&gt;Hiawatha Service &lt;/i&gt;trains to Waukesha, Jefferson and Dane&amp;nbsp;Counties. This project is referred to as &lt;i&gt;Hiawatha West&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;and it is the first phase of a larger effort to implement Amtrak service between Chicago and the Twin Cities via Eau Claire.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Initially, this service would have up to two daily round-trips with a focus on temporary stations in the Pewaukee, Watertown, and Madison areas. This is based on factors such as access to population&amp;nbsp;centers and the spacing of stops, operational feasibility, and ridership potential.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No decisions are final until the end of the planning and environmental clearance process.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The first required step to advance &lt;i&gt;Hiawatha West&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;is the completion of a Service Development Plan. Amtrak is working with its partners to complete the plan and design a project that can&amp;nbsp;be implemented quickly at the lowest cost and generate a strong return on investment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Amtrak is seeking comments and feedback, starting with a webinar.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;WHAT:&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Webinar on Proposed Amtrak &lt;i&gt;Hiawatha West &lt;/i&gt;Service&lt;/p&gt;
