RAILTRACK TO INVEST US$44 BILLION

As the United Kingdom government gets tough with the privatized railroad industry, infrastructure owner Railtrack has announced a big increase in its investment plans for the decade ahead. Anticipating 30% growth in traffic over the period, Railtrack flagged a 27-billion British pound (US$44 billion) capital program, nearly 60% more than it envisaged a year before. The plan will shape the Rail Regulator's first review of access charges to train operators, determining Railtrack's revenue for 5 years from April 2001.
