£49.18m – over the period from October 2021 to 1 March 2024. As well as the work the Great British Railways Transition Team has led with the industry to prepare for a new industry guiding mind, it continues to play a valuable role across a broad range of areas. This includes developing tools to support better decision making across track and train to drive efficiencies, supporting the expansion of PAYG to make it easier for people to travel by train, advising the department on setting the new rail freight growth target, playing a key role in initiatives to drive revenue recovery and helping develop the National Rail Accessibility Strategy.
