Rail and urban transport review 2024
An assessment and ambition for a new government.
This assessment has sought to identify recommendations to accelerate and amplify the huge benefits that rail and urban transport infrastructure unlocks. In doing so it has identified practical steps to reform the planning, funding and delivery of rail and urban transport projects.
The independent Review was led by Juergen Maier CBE, former Siemens CEO and guided by an Expert Panel from across the industry. Secretariat support was provided by the Urban Transport Group, with expertise and thought leadership support from Arup.
