Route option consultation: 28 January to 11 March 2019 Our role is to deliver a safe and reliable railway, so we carefully manage and deliver thousands of projects every year that form part of the multi-billion pound Railway Upgrade Plan, to grow and expand the nation's railway network to respond to the tremendous growth and demand the railway has experienced - a doubling of passenger journeys over the past 20 years.This work is supported by the government who re-stated its commitment to accelerate the delivery of the central section in the 2018 budget, announcing £20 million for the East West Railway Company to develop a Strategic Outline Business Case (SOBC). People depend on Britain's railway for their daily commute, to visit friends and loved ones and to get them home safe every day. Usually, there are almost five million journeys made in the UK and over 600 freight trains run on the network. We run 20 of the UK's largest stations while all the others, over 2,500, are run by the country's train operating companies. We own, operate and develop Britain's railway infrastructure that's 20,000 miles of track, 30,000 bridges, tunnels and viaducts and the thousands of signals, level crossings and stations.
