Text reads: "“We are excited about feeding into England’s new Integrated National Transport Strategy and emboldened by the Secretary of State’s vision for putting people and local needs at the forefront of transport. “In community rail, we are all about helping people and communities get more from their local railways and wider transport networks, so we have a rich array of insights to share from our grassroots movement on what positive, inclusive change looks like. We see up close the difference it makes to people’s lives, being able to confidently access public transport and get around their local areas. It means accessing the work and training opportunities you deserve, staying connected with friends and family, and visiting enriching places. Yet this is not a given for many."

Text reads: “It was deeply encouraging to hear the Secretary of State’s acknowledgement of the scale of the challenge we face, but also the huge benefits on offer, from integrating our fragmented system, ensuring everyone can get around safely and sustainably, and enabling greater use of public transport and active travel for the sake of our climate, local places, health and wellbeing. Involving communities in this transformation is vital; we are looking forward to playing a strong role in community rail, and alongside our Sustainable Transport Alliance partners.”
