Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the effects, if any, of the current reduction in rail services on those wishing to return to work in person.
This question was answered on 31st January 2022
The Department has been working closely with rail operators as they mitigate the impact of staff absences on rail services.
The current temporary train timetable is providing passengers with certainty so they can plan their journeys confidently as they return to work in person. As staffing pressures ease and passenger demand increases, operators are increasing rail services accordingly to meet demand.
