The King’s Speech today underlines the importance of the rail sector to our new government’s plans. No less than three seperate pieces of legislation to deliver the reform the industry so badly needs and also to address the bottleneck that exists between Crewe and Manchester on the network. As an industry and supply chain we should get behind these changes to make the railway best placed to deliver the needs of passengers and freight customers.
Commenting on the first King’s Speech under a Labour Government since 1950, Railway Industry Association (RIA) Chief Executive Darren Caplan said: “The Railway Industry Association (RIA) welcomes today’s King’s Speech as a strong legislative programme for driving growth by building sustainable infrastructure and improving transport. “RIA and our members support the Government’s pledge to establish a reformed and unified railway system under Great British Railways tasked with improving affordability, reliability and performance. A new body with strategic oversight and responsibility for rail can focus on meeting growing passenger demand and boosting industry revenues." 🔗 Read the full comment here: https://lnkd.in/ep6gXQ_N #KingsSpeech #RailReform #GreatBritishRailways #GBR
