Transforming Scotland's Rail Network: A Collaborative Future

New framework empowers Scotland in rail decision-making, safeguarding devolved powers and delivering enhanced, dependable services for passengers.
In a landmark move, the UK and Scottish governments have agreed on a new framework that strengthens Scotland's role in shaping its rail network, protecting devolved powers and promising clearer, more reliable services for passengers as Great British Railways (GBR) takes shape.
The framework, developed through extensive collaboration between the two administrations, ensures that Scotland's unique needs and priorities will be at the heart of the upcoming transformation of the UK's rail system. This includes maintaining the Scottish Government's influence over key decisions, such as setting fares, timetables, and infrastructure investment.
