Hi,
I am currently completing a dissertation for an MSc in Quantity Surveying at Heriot Watt University. My dissertation is titled "Why did Metronet fail and what next for the London Underground".
I am currently at the research stage of my project and wanted to conduct a number of telephone interviews with former Metronet employees to discuss with them what they felt went wrong. I would particularly like to focus on the technical aspects of the infrastructure improvements on the underground. Did the staff feel that they had enough time to work on the tracks? Was the task much bigger than Metronet had first envisaged? I would also like to focus upon the relationship between LUL and Metronet which appears to have been a cause for cost overruns.
I envisage any interviews to take 20 -30 minutes and I do intend to record the interviews so that I can refer back to them. If however you only had ten minutes to voice your opinions that would be fine any help that I could get would be gratefully received. Also if you would rather your interview remained anonymous that would also be fine.
I would like to conduct these interviews ASAP. If anyone who has worked for or with Metronet could get in contact and help me out that would be fantastic! I look forward to hearing from you!
Please e-mail me at dtg3@hw.ac.uk
Kind Regards
