Mary Grant joins panel at Rail Scotland Conference 2023

Our CEO Mary Grant joined Managing Director of Scotland's Railway Alex Hynes and the Commercial and Regulatory Manager for Transport Scotland Damian Briody for the first panel session of the Rail Scotland Conference 2023.

The Rail Scotland Conference brings together key decision makers and partners together to discuss Scotland’s key plans and offer the latest insight into their future ambitions.

The first panel discussion focused on how to ensure the network meets the needs of passengers today, while also looking to the future as we meet decarbonisation targets.

With Scotland having blazed a trail in the UK in terms of its rail ambitions and targets for decarbonisation and freight, Mary emphasised the important role that private sector investment plays in enhancing public investment in rail and driving innovation.
