East West Railway Company is a new and exciting venture at the forefront of the changing landscape of the rail industry, delivering substantial fast-paced improvement to modernise the railway. East West Rail is a proposed new rail link between Oxford, Milton Keynes, Cambridge and potentially beyond. As part of bold plans for the ‘UK’s Silicon Valley’, it is one of the most high profile infrastructure projects in the UK today. The new railway will improve local connectivity and serve as a catalyst for economic development, including the creation of more high skilled jobs and new homes. It will also significantly reduce existing commuting and travel times. In late 2017, the Secretary of State for Transport launched the East West Railway Company to bring new drive to the project. The organization is leading the way on innovation, with a clear ambition to increase the pace of delivery and improve cost-effectiveness. A ‘disruptor’ to the traditional model for building railways, East West Railway Co has a genuine focus on the customer, and will develop a much close alignment between building infrastructure and operating passenger services.
