The world's first rail testing centre in Wales is urging organisations around the UK to submit proposals to a major new rail innovation competition.
The Global Centre of Rail Excellence (GCRE) is working with Innovate UK and the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) to offer teams up to £7.44 million of grant funding for innovative ideas that can be tested at the GCRE facility in south Wales.
The aim of the competition is to support initial feasibility studies outlining how an organisation would work with the construction teams at GCRE to deliver a demonstration of innovation in railway construction to the site.
