Yes to NR reform

摘要

If rail freight is to grow, Transport Minister Theresa Villiers told the Rail Freight 2010 conference on July 7, 'we need a railway that is incentiv-ised to deliver a high-quality service to its users. If we deliver that, we need an infrastructure provider that is responsive to customer concerns.rn'So the third means of improving the climate for rail freight that I would like to look at today is of course the reform of Network Rail', she said. 'In my view the status quo is simply not acceptable'.rnVilliers explained that the coalition agreement and Conservative manifesto commitment both seek 'to reform Network Rail so that it becomes more responsive and accountable to its customers, the train operators, and to the passengers and freight customers they serve'.
