We understand that track access is incredibly limited for all involved. With competing work banks, projects, emergency interventions, innovations, and service changes, securing slots for railway work is a challenge. So, how do we ensure maximum productivity within these constraints? The solution lies in collaborative efforts to integrate technology into the network, bridging the compliance gap between manual inspections, maintenance, and evolving standards. This is where innovative partnerships among maintenance engineers, delivery teams, and contractors become crucial in developing the right mindset to identify and seize opportunities while prioritising safety and efficiency.

In some markets, high-speed rail networks have been safely, affordably and efficiently moving people while transforming surrounding communities for decades. In others, they remain out of reach — their planning, construction and expansion weighed-down by cost and time pressures, and a lack of critical public support and long-term political will. Mark Southwell, chief executive of our Transportation global business line, shares our first-of-its-kind research that provides a global view of best practices in high-speed rail to help empower operators, contractors and governments with a way forward for successful delivery.
