Office of Rail and Road

The Office of Rail and Road protects the interests of rail and road users. We are improving the safety, value and performance of railways and roads, today and in the future.

We are accountable to Parliament and the public to protect the people who use, interact or work on the railway; ensure fair access to a rail network which is becoming increasingly congested; ensure Highways England delivers its major programme of investment and other performance commitments; and protect the interests of future users by working with the industry and funders as they develop the network of tomorrow.
