CASE STUDY

HIGH SPEED RAIL GROUP

For over a decade, Field has promoted the delivery of a world-class high-speed rail network through our communications and public affairs work for the High Speed Rail Group (HSRG).

OVERVIEW

We execute a comprehensive programme of proactive media engagement, rebutting negative stories and uniting the industry to speak with one voice to amplify support for high-speed rail across the UK. We regularly secure high-profile coverage in titles including The Times, The Guardian, The Scotsman and The Yorkshire Post as well as trade titles New Civil Engineer and Rail Professional.

We have positioned HSRG as thought leaders by curating a range of thought pieces and reports on topics including the economic benefits of high-speed rail, jobs/skills and decarbonisation.

We manage and coordinate political engagement across a targeted range of politicians and influencers and run a successful and engaging events programme which brings together key stakeholders. This includes Parliamentary receptions, roundtables, a focused party conference programme, including fringe events with both the Transport Secretary and Shadow Transport Secretary.

Field also manages the annual HSRG conference, hosted in key cities along the line of route. The event attracts over 200 delegates including politicians, senior industry leaders and local authority figures who come together to champion the benefits of HS2.

OUTCOME

Our work has broadened and deepened support for high-speed rail projects across the UK, including HS2. HSRG is now widely regarded as being one of the most authoritative voices on high-speed rail.
