Arc Infrastructure has announced that after five years as Chief Executive Officer and 15 years since his first involvement with the business, Murray Cook will be stepping down on 6 December 2024. Arc Infrastructure General Manager Commercial Nathan Speed has been appointed to the role of Acting Chief Executive Officer, commencing 9 December 2024. Mr Speed has been involved with the business for 11 years, most recently serving as General Manager Commercial for the last six years. As a member of the Executive team, Nathan has been involved with several of the business’ strategic priorities and his involvement working across all major parts of the business will ensure stability and continuity for stakeholders. “To have the opportunity to lead this organisation and our incredibly talented and dedicated people is an enormous privilege. “I am excited to start in the role and look forward to leading our continued focus on increasing freight on rail in WA," Mr Speed said. An announcement on the appointment of a permanent Chief Executive Officer will be made early next year.

We are proud to be partnering with our above and below-rail operators to highlight the important rail safety initiative of SPAD / PAE Awareness Week. A SPAD is a Signal Passed At Danger and a PAE is a Proceed Authority Exceedance. In earlier years, the awareness week focussed only on SPADs, but this year the campaign has been expanded to PAEs as well. By including all authority exceedances on the rail network, such as written authorities when a train is not in signalled territory, ensures everyone on the network remains safe. Arc thanks the above and below-rail operators for their continued support of the initiative, which also includes bi-monthly working groups with all operators on the network.

Arc’s Third Party team has been working hard behind the scenes to enable a number of State Government project milestones to be achieved across regional and metro areas.
