Arup has announced the appointment of John Fagan as global business leader for rail.<\/p>\n

With over 20 years of experience in the industry, John\u2019s expertise spans operational planning, business case development, feasibility studies, front-end engineering, and technical leadership on complex rail programmes.<\/p>\n

John has played a pivotal role in delivering high-impact projects including the TransPennine Route Upgrade and HS2, and has been a strategic advisor to the Department for Transport on its rail reform programme. He has also advised rail operators and owning groups on business planning and operating concession bids in the UK, Australia, Europe and UAE.<\/p>\n

His leadership will be instrumental as Arup continues to shape the future of rail, partnering strategically with clients across the entire rail lifecycle to deliver rail projects that connect cities, drive economic growth, and support sustainable mobility.<\/p>\n

John said: \u201cRail networks are a canvas for national transformation, creating jobs, stimulating industries and forming the backbone of economic development. I\u2019m thrilled to lead our rail business into its next chapter of global growth, supporting our clients world-wide to reimagine what\u2019s possible for rail: from how projects are funded to how they are designed, delivered and maintained.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur focus will be on helping clients navigate change, harness new technologies, and deliver rail systems that are resilient, efficient and sustainable. Whether we\u2019re working on a completely new rail line or renewing an aging network, we are drawing on the best of Arup\u2019s deep expertise and collaborative spirit to deliver transformative benefits for society\u201d.<\/p>\n
