Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

These regulations extend the operation of the access regime under the Railways (Operations and Access) Act 1997 for five years from 31 October 2025 and repeal the 2020 regulations. They take effect on 31 October 2025. They affect parties governed by that access regime — railway operators and anyone seeking access under the Act — by continuing the existing legal framework; the regulations do not set new access rules themselves (see r3 and Schedule 1).
