Integrated Rail Plan
The Integrated Rail Plan is a strategic government initiative in the UK aimed at improving rail infrastructure and services across England, particularly in the Midlands and the North. It combines investment in new high-speed, regional, and freight rail projects to create a more efficient, reliable, and connected rail network. The plan seeks to reduce journey times, promote economic growth, support sustainability by encouraging train use, and better integrate transportation across regions, ultimately enhancing mobility and regional development through coordinated planning and funding.
