[edit]

hi folks - thought i'd make a note here of my edit - the article smelt a little of company PR - this company is not the shining light of PPP - indeed seems to have performed rather poorly according to independant analysis - so I removed a little material, and added the recent criticism.... there you go!

The company is now out of administration as of May 27th 00:01 hrs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.169.41.100 (talk) 09:42, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Metronet URLs don't work anymore and should be removed. Paulikxp (talk) 23:42, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

– The British Metronet railway infrastructure company went into administration in 2007 & has been defunct since 2009, after running out of money. London Underground no longer uses 'infrastructure companies' to maintain its trains and tracks, the other company Tube Lines was subsumed into Transport for London in 2010. The Metronet article is stable, and I cannot foresee any major changes happening in future to that article.

I therefore propose a name swap with Metronet (Western Australian government agency). Founded in 2017, Metronet (WA gov agency) is building out Perth's rail network. As of 2022, I considered that it's more relevant than the British Metronet article name wise. However, they're roughly equal on page views. Thoughts?

Also welcome any proposed names that are better than Metronet (British infrastructure company) - it's barely 8am here and I'm not firing on all cylinders today. Turini2 (talk) 08:07, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
