And just like that, Rail Live 2025 is in the books! It was another awesome event this year with the sun shining, and over 7,000 people in attendance over two days of the show! The KITE Projects team had a very busy couple of days networking with railway professionals from across the industry.

Did you know that the people of Britain are most likely to choose to travel long-distance by train over car or plane than any other country in the world? The study, carried out by SavantaComes, found that 46% of Londoners prefer to travel long-distance by train, compared to 41% by car and just 10% via short haul flights. With these statistics in mind, it’s no wonder that the railway is one of the busiest infrastructure networks in the UK.

How often do you stop to think about the safety of level crossings? For millions of pedestrians and motorists, making the wrong decision can be life-changing. Yesterday, 5th June, was International Level Crossing Awareness Day, a worldwide initiative to improve safety at crossings, and reduce the number of incidents and near-misses.
