NTS has appointed Julie Nerney as Interim Rail Director following Chris Connelly’s decision to step down as NTS Rail Director and Managing Director of DRS.

Julie has been Director of Transformation at NTS for the last two years and prior to joining the organisation has had a successful career starting, running and leading several businesses in the transport and safety sectors and beyond. This included delivering the successful transport operations for LOCOG for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Chris Connelly has been an integral part of DRS since its very early days and the growth in its reputation as a leading UK rail operator is something that stands testament to his entrepreneurial spirit and vision. We would like to wish Chris all the best for the future.
