ROCHESTER, N.H. — A rail line between the New Hampshire communities of Ossipee and Rochester is getting $1.4 million for repairs and upgrades.
Last year, New Hampshire’s congressional delegation urged the U.S. Department of Transportation to support a grant application for the New Hampshire Northcoast Railroad Project, which will allow the railroad to expand its freight service on the line and operate it more efficiently.
U.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter, who announced the grant Thursday, said the line connects to the national freight rail network via Boston and is a vital transportation link for New Hampshire.
