We want to ensure that all rail investment meets the needs of rail users and communities alike and we will continue to consider all requests for new schemes in line with our rail network enhancement pipeline (RNEP) policy. The RNEP is managed as a portfolio with the prioritisation of schemes and the allocation of funds within it managed and updated on an ongoing basis.
