BRITISH network manager Network Rail (NR) has submitted a Transport and Works Act Order (TWAO) for phase 2 of the East West Rail project between Bicester and Bedford, which includes a proposal to revive a disused section of line between Claydon Junction and Bletchley.
BRITAIN’s secretary of state for transport, Mr Chris Grayling, has announced changes to the way the railway is run in England which he says will improve the reliability of rail services.
LOCAL authorities in southeast England backing the East West Rail (EWR) link from Oxford and Aylesbury to Milton Keynes and Bedford are warning that the project could be delayed by between three and seven years under a review of infrastructure manager Network Rail's (NR) enhancement programme.
