Sustainable Development Plan

Successful delivery of our sustainability strategy is reliant on integrating our vision, ambition and flagship goals into our business processes and systems. We must ensure we work collectively and keep colleagues and stakeholders informed of the steps we all need to take to enable change. Ensuring that funding and planning supports our milestone targets, we will look to innovation and technology to provide effective solutions to the challenges we face. 

Our plan will drive forward environmental and social opportunities, delivering:

• our contribution to net-zero ambitions
• reduced negative environmental impacts
• environmental benefits for nature and community well-being
• positive social impact for customers, communities, and the economy

In achieving this we will:

• support delivery of the Sustainable Rail Blueprint
• drive improvements and enhanced contributions to the communities we serve
• go beyond environmental sustainability
• deliver strategic plans for accessibility and community engagement
• enable modal shift for our customers
