£38 billion boost for Network Rail upgrades

A FIVE-YEAR £38 billion investment programme has been unveiled by Network and the British government. They say it will result in more trains, more seats, reduced congestion and better stations.

Transport secretary Patrick McLoughlin said: ‘A key part of this government’s long term economic plan is investing in world class infrastructure. That is why we are putting record amounts of government funding into our railways over the next five years. It will generate growth, create jobs and boost business while delivering faster journeys, greater comfort and better punctuality for passengers across the UK.’


Devon and Cornwall also heard some good news today. Network Rail confirmed that their railway will be re-connected to the rest of the country April 4.
