Where we're based
We have around 5,700 colleagues based in locations around the country. This includes our uniformed traffic officers, who patrol key areas of the network. Our operations are split into seven regions: North West, North East and Yorkshire, West Midlands, East Midlands, South West, South East and East. We have a control room based in each region, and each region manages a programme of repairs and maintenance on their part of the network.
