In order to deal with the challenge of ensuring that Britain’s rail stations are effectively managed, Network Rail has created a new position of station director, in order that someone has direct responsibility for Britain’s stations.
The new role has been given Mike Goggin, who will report to Robin Gisby, Operations and Customer Service Director.
Commenting on the appointment Mr Gisby said: “Last year we announced a £3.25bn, five-year investment programme for stations. With punctuality at record levels passengers now demand better and brighter stations. This sustained investment into the shop window of the railway will improve facilities for all who use them and attract more passengers to the network.
“Passengers are at the centre of everything we do. That is why in developing our plans for stations we are asking them – the most important users of the railway – for their views under our Action Stations initiative.
“In bringing all this together, Mike Goggin will play a vital role in our task to develop the stations of the future. His management, operations and commercial experience are the right mix for this crucial new job.”
