Siemens Mobility honoured with award recognising contribution to East Yorkshire

Siemens Mobility has received the special recognition award at the 2025 East Riding of Yorkshire Chairman’s Awards for its contribution to the local economy and community.

The company’s Goole Rail Village in East Yorkshire represents an investment of up to £240m. 

The site includes a train manufacturing facility along with components, logistics, innovation and office buildings. 

Siemens Mobility’s investment in Goole is set to bring up to 1,000 new jobs to East Yorkshire and around 1,700 supply chain opportunities.

Finbarr Dowling (pictured, centre left), head of UK localisation at Siemens Mobility, said: “We’re delighted to have been recognised by the Chairman of East Riding of Yorkshire Council. 

“This award is especially fitting as the council has played a critical role in supporting our investment in Goole and maximising the benefits we have brought to the local economy and community. 

“In Goole, as in everywhere we operate, we aim to make a positive difference to the local community as part of our mission to transform rail travel and transport in the UK.”

Dowling added: “A great deal has been achieved so far, but we’re committed to building on this.”
