What we are doing to improve

Next 3 Months

We will continue to deliver our Joint Performance Plans with Network Rail to improve our operational performance, current focus areas include ensuring we deliver all readiness activity for the autumn season, and planning for a successful December timetable change introduction.

Next Year

We will implement performance improvement actions aligned with the Performance Restoration Framework, focusing on timetable reliability, staff availability, infrastructure resilience, and disruption management. Collaborative efforts with Network Rail will address crime, extreme weather, and congestion on parts of our route.

Longer-Term

We will introduce new Intercity trains, refurbish regional fleets, and work with Network Rail on sustainable maintenance access and infrastructure enhancements to reduce failures and improve overall service reliability.
