A new report from the Berkeley Research Group (BRG) aims to examine what drives disputes and outcomes across the rail project lifecycle.

In Risk of Derailment: What Is Driving Disputes in Global Railway Projects?, BRG draws on insights from industry practitioners, legal specialists and technical experts from across Europe, Asia-Pacific (APAC), the Middle East and North America.

The report highlights how disputes in rail can originate before construction begins and often emerge from issues such as weak enabling environments, optimism bias in demand forecasting, procurement challenges and evolving geopolitical pressures.

Via case studies and expert insight, the report offers an explanation on the common patterns that can lead to delay and conflict within major rail projects.

The first instalment of BRG’s new Global Infrastructure Series: Transport aims to provide a clear understanding of where risks can arrive and how they might be mitigated, offering practical insights for market participants seeking to better understand this complex space and its risk of disputes.
