This event will bring together leading organisations and senior professionals from across the rail infrastructure sector, to explore the realities shaping the network today and the opportunities these provide.
Attendees will not only gain valuable updates on major ongoing projects, including progress to date, lessons learned, and emerging opportunities for the supply chain, but will also be more informed on the challenges faced through both new projects and maintenance of the infrastructure.
Speakers will explore how these challenges continue to impact performance, cost, and delivery timescales, therefore highlight opportunities for the supply chain to help.
