Scope

The SRE is required to:

  • drive forward the development of an ambitious, affordable, and practical sustainability blueprint to make rail the leading mode of sustainable transport
  • coordinate policy and industry responses to sustainability challenges, influencing the government to weigh investment choices in rail against sustainability outcomes in other modes
  • collate and report the combined efforts of the industry into a single, understandable view
  • review the industry’s progress and provide challenge where it is needed, holding duty holders to account
  • assesses sustainability funding and identify shortfalls, impressing upon funders the need for further support.
