Edinburgh Rail Ltd  

  • Edinburgh Rail delivers private sector money to contribute towards the costs of building new public transport services by harnessing the planning land uplift which occurs when the new services are introduced.

  • Edinburgh Rail's method is unique and proven.

  • The known availability of committed private funds for a transport project reduces its cost to the public purse and can accelerate the approval and delivery of the service.

  • To date, Edinburgh Rail has identified over £500 million of land uplift available from over 30 UK, Canadian and Australian projects.

  • The process can apply to both public and private sector projects.

  • The following pages of this website provide more details on the company, the Edinburgh Rail methodology for securing such private funds, some current projects and details of how to contact us.
‘Edinburgh Rail's methodology raises significant capital to fund transport projects. The combination of private sector contributions that attenuates the capital outlay from public funds is unquestionably very appealing to public-sector transport sponsors.’
