Concern about potential fare rises as government unveils rail changes


Last modified on Thu 20 May 2021 15.29 EDT
A Great British Railways will mean a simpler, more efficient system for the industry and passengers, the government has pledged – but job cuts and fare rises have not been ruled out as ministers said they would bear down on costs.
The transport secretary, Grant Shapps, said the changes announced in a white paper on Thursday would “make the railways easier to use by simplifying fares and ticketing, providing more convenient ways to pay … rail services will be better coordinated with each other and better integrated with other transport services”.
He said the changes would end the current fragmentation of rail and ensure accountability under a new unified brand. Great British Railways will be an arms-length public sector body with overall responsibility for both the track and trains. It will issue management contracts for private sector train operators, with incentives for punctuality and increasing passenger numbers. ....

UK railways brace for shake-up and cuts as long-overdue review arrives


Ministers hope the changes, the biggest shake-up since privatisation in the early 1990s, will resolve the fragmentation of the industry which has been blamed for adding cost as well as leading to the chaos seen in the 2018 rail timetable crisis and franchise failures that prompted the review.
Despite three years having elapsed, the white paper will still leave much of the detail to be decided. The head of Network Rail, Andrew Haines, and its chairman, Sir Peter Hendy, will be tasked with drawing up the processes and structures of the new GBR, which will eventually subsume Network Rail.
New types of fares aimed at making train travel more attractive to part-time commuters will also be unveiled by ministers – largely in the form of carnet-style tickets for multiple journeys with limited savings, which may disappoint passenger groups. ....
