PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Railways: South Wales (5 December 2017)
Question Asked
Asked by:
Chris Elmore (Labour)
Answer
The Office of Road and Rail (ORR), as the independent railway safety regulator, is responsible for ensuring the rail industry is meeting its safety duties and that it responds appropriately to any new issues or risks which are identified.
In October we announced our plans to make £47.9bn available to Network Rail across England and Wales over the course of Control Period 6. This will enable Network Rail to carry out safety work across the country including track renewals, repairs, station improvements and maintenance of level crossings.
