A new report from High Speed Rail Group (HSRG) highlights the significant potential for high speed rail in the UK. City-to-city train travel is crucial for future economic growth and achieving net zero, but its success requires “long-term policies that will help to develop long-term investment”, says HSRG Chair, and former CEO of HS1, Dyan Perry (nee Crowther) in an interview with Times Radio. Longevity and reliability are central to HS1’s role as the UK’s first and only high-speed rail line. As we look to a future with more capacity and choice for passengers on the line, HS1 is in prime position to support the growing demand for high speed rail travel in the UK and to Europe, and to meet the challenges outlined in the report. The rail industry and the Government must work together to overcome the gaps in investment, skills and certainty highlighted by HSRG, whilst seizing the opportunities for connectivity, economic growth and decarbonisation.

Keep them rolling! 🚅 The expansion of a high quality regional railroad network is key for the reduction of GHG emissions by providing an alternative to travel by car. Allianz GIobal Investors is proud to announce that it acted as sole institutional investor in the financing of the French rail company SPL GRAND EST MOBILITES to support the development of railway services in the Grand Est region. Providing financing in the scope of €256 million (as part of a €1.2 billion financing package) for the refurbishing and transfer of about 200 regional express trains to SPL GRAND EST MOBILITES, will provide a blue print for other regions to follow suit and replicate the contractual framework for their regions. SPL Grand Est Mobilités is a company specifically set up and owned by the Grand Est region and other local authorities and is the cornerstone of the Grand Est region’s strategy to take control of the regional train services (TER), currently managed by the incumbent national rail company SNCF Voyageurs. Grand Est Region will acquire the c. 200 regional express trains (c. 50% of the regional fleet) running on its territory from SNCF Voyageurs and then transfer these trains to SPL Grand Est Mobilités, in exchange of the payment of an entry fee. In order to finance such transfer and refurbishment of the rolling stock, SPL Grand Est Mobilités secured in October 2023 a €1.2 billion financing from Allianz Global Investors’ investors, commercial banks, the European Investment Bank (EIB) and la Caisse des Dépôts (CDC), the French State-owned bank. https://lnkd.in/eV_cX2SJ This investment underlines Allianz Global Investors’ commitment to French infrastructure projects. Since 2013, AllianzGI’s Infrastructure Debt team has invested more than €3 billion in infrastructure projects in France. #infrastructuredebt #mobility

Today we brought together experts from West of England Combined Authority, Transport for Wales, Network Rail, RIA Wales & Western, Western Gateway STB, Great Western Railway (GWR), CrossCountry Trains and Arup along with local Council Leaders and Cabinet Members, to discuss the delivery of cost-efficient rail electrification in particular the Filton Bank stretch in Bristol and Cardiff to Swansea in South Wales. Albeit a small part of the network, Filton Bank is the spine of Bristol and has heaps of potential to support extra services through efficient decarbonisation, reaching even wider communities across the wider Western Gateway region. With electrification, Filton Bank also has the opportunity to remove constraints on other parts of the network, improving services to places like Birmingham and Exeter, and acting as a good test bed to show that electrification can be delivered cost effectively. Local stakeholders are ready to deliver on electrification and have already committed funding to support these business cases building on lessons from the Core Valley Lines and from the ever-developing innovation in this sector.

A truly joined up approach to #highspeedrail is needed to connect communities and create places that thrive. We’re proud members of the High Speed Rail Group since its inception. This latest 'Exploiting the Potential' report identifies clear opportunities for building a #highspeed #rail network that enables long-term social, economic and #environmental benefits. We are a pioneer of high speed rail and share the vision of making long-distance travel faster, safer, more reliable and more sustainable for passengers. SYSTRA experts have worked on almost half of the #HSR projects around the globe and have been doing so for over 50 years. Our teams played a major role in HS1 in the UK and are applying our expertise to the design and construction of #HS2. Whilst often complex and challenging schemes, we know transformational projects such as HS2, as proposed in full, have the potential to reinforce #railway capacity while creating significant economic benefits for regions and populations. We remain passionate about working with partners and stakeholders to deliver innovative high speed rail #infrastructure that can make a real difference to all areas of the UK for generations to come. #connectivitymatters #railways #railcapacity #railconnections #railpassengers #railfreight #longtermplanning #transportconnectivity #sustainabletravel #netzero
We have launched a report today - High Speed Rail: Exploiting the Potential, that outlines five recommendations for the next Government, which if implemented would allow the UK to deliver the new capacity and connectivity which it desperately needs to grow sustainably. We believe that a comprehensive long-term strategy to develop the UK’s inter urban rail network is essential for future economic growth and achieving net zero. We urge political figures on all sides to look beyond HS2 and take a fresh approach to maximise the vast potential of high speed rail in the UK. Recommendation one - develop, and stick to, a comprehensive long-term strategy for both North-South and East-West travel, prioritising the link from Birmingham to the North West, and the route across the north of England from Liverpool to Hull. To avoid an ever great clogged up road network. #rail #highspeedrail #infrastructure #connectivitymatters #railways #hs2 #railcapacity #railconnections #railpassengers #railfreight #longtermplanning #transportconnectivity #sustainabletravel #netzero https://lnkd.in/dnvpV_kr

Disappointing not to see more in the Autumn Statement confirming wider funding for rail, particularly the numerous schemes in the new ‘Network North’ proposals. We were told the funding for #HS2 Phase 2 was to be reallocated to other more immediate #transportschemes and so we would welcome more detail from Government on how it plans to push on with delivery of the Network North plans. #connectivitymatters #netzero #lowcarboneconomy #transportnetwork #network #highspeedrail
