Rail survey report: What are the key issues facing your business?

Rail survey report: What are the key issues facing your business?

(2) What are the main opportunities for my business?

Between April and July this year, the Stephenson Harwood rail team undertook market research on The Future of Rail in Great Britain. We have prepared three high level reports summarising the results. The first report explored what the industry thinks the key issues are, as well as reflecting on what the industry has done well since privatisation. 

This second report explores the key issues railway businesses are facing now and how to attract and retain the best people to deliver the future of rail in Great Britain. Staffing, passengers returning and funding are just some of the issues concerning the industry. Attracting and retaining the right people to deliver the future of rail in Great Britain was also a topic that generated plenty of interesting responses. To read more please click below.

We thank everyone who took the time to participate and hope you find these reports insightful. Both reports so far are only a summary of what the industry thinks. We'd be delighted to speak through more of the detail with you and discuss whether your business reflects what the wider industry is saying. Please do get in touch if this is of interest.

In our final report, we will be taking a look at what people are expecting from the Whole Industry Strategic Plan. Stay tuned for that.
