Key Route Risk Assessments
CN performs specific risk assessments on railway lines carrying substantial amounts of dangerous goods, known as Key Routes, looking at factors such as population and emergency response capabilities. Under new Transport Canada regulations, CN will incorporate input from Canadian municipalities along these Key Routes as part of those risk assessments.
At CN, we recognize that safety is of the utmost importance to communities, and believe rail safety is a shared responsibility. For information about Transport Canada’s Rules Respecting Key Trains and Key Routes, click here.
