In the first instance it is for Network Rail to consider what signalling renewals are required across the rail network and provide advice to Government and the Office of Rail and Road (ORR). The ORR will scrutinise Network Rail’s proposals and provide assurance on their cost and deliverability as part of its statutory five-yearly periodic reviews of Network Rail’s outputs and funding.
