What I learnt from overseeing work on the Elizabeth line

Russell Pilgrim Jacobs

Embracing uncertainty and new ways of approaching programme management will be crucial for future major programmes around the world

Having overseen some of Jacobs’ key contributions over the past three years on the Crossrail project, I can’t help but feel proud of everything that people have achieved on this landmark project. One thing is for sure, the Elizabeth line will revolutionise travel and benefit millions of people.

It will attract both economic and social investment, reduce journey times, create additional transport capacity, improve accessibility and provide a huge economic boost to the capital and beyond. With new stations and travel links, the Elizabeth line will support new housing and jobs across London, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Essex.
