Meet Ian Parker - our Programme Delivery Director

As we prepare to go out to non-statutory consultation in 2021, we’d like to introduce you to our Programme Delivery Director, Ian Parker. Ian is responsible for the development and construction of the new East West Rail line.

Ian says:

It is important that when the time comes that people get involved in the public consultation and give their views on the route alignment proposals for the proposed new section of railway line from Bedford to Cambridge. We’re also keen to understand how people currently use the railway line from Bletchley to Bedford so that we can develop a scheme that best meets the needs of customers and the local community.

Ian’s role in EWR extends across all phases of the programme including the current works to constructing the new East West Rail line from Bicester to Bletchley. Ian is a chartered civil engineer who has led many major infrastructure projects including the A14 Cambridge to Huntingdon for Highways England.
