The Department has been clear that the current, sustained poor performance on the railway is unacceptable, and the industry needs to make significant improvements to deliver the punctual, reliable services that passengers and taxpayers deserve. Through the Department\u2019s National Rail Contracts, there is a direct link between punctuality and reliability and the fee operators receive to incentivise improved performance and minimise cancellations. The Department continues to monitor the situation and hold the industry to account through regular high-level meetings with both Network Rail and representatives from the train operators.<\/p>

These reforms will bring our stations in tune with what customers expect from other, modern and responsive services, including supermarkets and banks, where customer assistants help with information, support and making digital transactions on the shop floor.<\/p>

Together with industry we want to improve and modernise the passenger experience and moving staff out from behind the glass of ticket offices and into more visible and accessible roles around stations is a central part of this.<\/p>
<\/p>
This is an industry-led process. The outcomes of the consultations will not be known until the Ticketing and Settlement Agreement process has been concluded.<\/p>

As the pandemic has changed travel habits, the Department expects train operators to use this opportunity to reassess their services to provide efficient rail timetables that respond to new passenger travel patterns, are fit for the future, and carefully balance cost, capacity and performance. Operators are also exploring opportunities to better match train capacity to demand, though more effective and efficient use of rolling stock.<\/p>
