Design Bridge and Partners, with RIBA and The Design Museum, has designed the Rail Clock.

For over half a century, the UK railway hasn’t had a unified clock design, leaving passengers without a consistent source of time.

This project introduces Rail Clock: a new face of time for the UK's railway that keeps people punctual and connects millions of travellers daily.

Created in partnership with RIBA and The Design Museum, the design challenge was to create an accessible, iconic clock that emotionally reconnects the nation with its railway heritage.

At its core is the iconic Double Arrow symbol, transforming a beloved visual icon into a timeless story across physical stations and digital screens.
