Jonathan Bray is to step down as director at the Urban Transport Group after 15 years in the role. He will leave in early April 2023 to “take time out to recharge”. He told LTT: “After I leave I intend to take some time out and then make my experience available if there’s useful roles I can play under the broad heading of making progressive change happen on transport.”

Bray joined the UTG’s predecessor the Passenger Transport Executive Group in 2003 as assistant director. Prior to that he was director of platform campaign, responsible for all aspects of Transport 2000’s campaign work on rail, and campaign director at Save Our Railways.
