Train operator Southern has just produced its best ever punctuality figures for a four-week period.

From May 31 to June 27 95.2 per cent of all Southern’s trains arrived at their final destinations on time.

This is the best punctuality figure for a four-week period since the beginning of Southern’s current franchise.

The news comes just days after Southern announced record breaking figures for a single day’s service provision of 97.3 pr cent achieved on June 8.

Southern’s managing director Chris Burchell said: “Once again, we have pulled out all the stops to push up performance levels.

“This record shows that not only can we produce really good days, but we are now doing this on a consistent basis.”
