Regulator recognises external challenges but calls on Network Rail to do more to help improve passenger and freight train performance [ORR]
Date: 02/11/2022
The regulator finds fewer trains are arriving on time and an increase in cancellations compared to the start of this financial year. The percentage of trains arriving on time at stations was 70.2% in September 2022, compared to 72.6% in April 2022. National freight performance is also at its lowest point for the last five years. ORR recognises that factors such as extreme weather, issues with train company staffing and industrial action have impacted the network beyond Network Rail's control.
