The outcomes we are trying to achieve for the South Eastern franchise were stated in the public consultation document. We want more reliable services, longer trains and better customer service.

The consultation has now closed and we are reviewing the responses. We will ensure the next franchise delivers the services that passengers want.

On 22nd June my Department announced the four companies who expressed an interest in operating the service from December 2018.
