<p>The resilience of the signalling system and other railway infrastructure to extreme
weather conditions is the responsibility of Network Rail. With Ministers’ support,
the company has developed a Weather Resilience and Climate Change Adaptation Plan
for each of its eight Routes in order to understand the risks and to provide a focus
for action to mitigate these. Specific measures include the roll-out of uninterruptible
power supplies to help reduce signal failures, and the greater use of remote condition
monitoring technology to ensure that any emerging issues are identified as soon as
practicable.</p>
