Passenger Information during Disruption
Feedback from customers consistently tells us that the flow of information about train services that are experiencing disruption is a priority for them and is an area we need to focus on more strongly. Whilst it is recognised the Northern have the responsibility for managing their relationship with their own customers, the interconnected nature of the rail industry dictates that a coordinated approach to the provision of passenger information during major delays/disruption is appropriate and important.
Customer information pledges
Whilst we always try our best to make your journey as simple as possible, we understand that, sometimes things don’t always go to plan when travelling by rail.
Customers across rail industry, tell us that this is an area, we need to improve, which is why Northern has been working closely with other train operators, Network Rail and the Rail Delivery group as part of the Smarter information programme.
The Smarter information programme
This programme aims to achieve a step change in customer experience through providing you with improved information, when and how you wish to receive it.
Across the rail industry, we have now agreed a set of pledges, which outline what you can expect, before, during and after your journey.
