Comment on Mark Carne announcement

Commenting today on the announcement of the retirement of Mark Carne from Network Rail, Paul Plummer, Chief Executive of the Rail Delivery Group, said:

“I would like to join many people across the industry in thanking Mark for his work embedding safety culture and the ongoing transformation of Network Rail and its delivery for customers. His work on devolution of routes and the establishment of an independent system set the foundations for strong local partnerships of the route with train operators and suppliers focused on the needs of end-customers while maintaining a seamless network. Over the next 18 months there will also be unprecedented improvements and investment in the railway, boosting communities and the economy, and Mark has played a crucial role in making this happen.”
