Train Operating Companies
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what plans she has to ensure open access operators continue to have opportunities to expand services under Great British Railways.
Answered by Keir Mather
The Bill contains clear legislative safeguards to ensure non-GBR operators, including open access operators, have fair access to the GBR-managed network. Open access operators can bring benefits to the rail network and passengers and will continue to play a role in delivering services where it represents best use of the network.
