Railways: Standards
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps she plans to take to improve the reliability of train services.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
Improving railway performance and delivering reform is a top priority for the Department. Ministers continue to meet with Managing Directors of the worst performing train operators and their Network Rail counterparts to address poor performance and demand immediate action to raise standards. Furthermore, performance information will be displayed at stations, demonstrating transparency, and allowing passengers to hold us to account as we deliver change.
