Details

This command paper sets out the government鈥檚 vision for the railways, alongside the policies that are needed to realise that vision. Making life better for customers 鈥� both passengers and freight users 鈥� is at the heart of our approach.

We must also make the railways financially sustainable in the longer term, so they can contribute to the country鈥檚 economic growth and environmental goals.
