At Network Rail, we're part of a large family serving millions of passengers and freight users throughout the UK every day. Our service impacts millions of people and we strive to become more efficient as we enhance, maintain, and operate our network. We want to help deliver a railway that is safe, reliable, affordable, and provides great customer service to everyone.

Our maintenance teams ensure every part of our infrastructure, such as signals and power supplies, or assets such as track and bridges, is maintained and in good working order.
