Those expecting to hear who's been awarded the South Western rail franchise - which includes Island Line - will have to wait an extra couple of months, after decision and implementation is delayed.
Christopher Garnett OBE is an independent transport expert who has agreed to help the Isle of Wight council on informing the Island’s collective response to DfT proposals for Island Line trains.
Mr Garnett is the chairman of the Transport Coordinating Committee for the Rugby World Cup 2015, was a board member of the Olympic Delivery Authority, the Chairman and Chief Executive of Great North Eastern Railways for ten years and a board member for Transport for London for six years.
