Nine out of ten mainline train services are running on time.

Figures for the four-week period ending on October 11 showed 90.9% of Greater Anglia mainline services ran to schedule.

The network’s overall punctuality level was 92.5%, with more trains running to time on routes including Stansted Express.

Greater Anglia managing director Jamie Burles said: “We are continuing to work closely with our colleagues at Network Rail to improve train service performance and to make progress with the positive actions for further improvement we announced in the summer."

Commuter services are deemed on time if they arrive within five minutes of their timetabled time, or ten minutes for long-distance trains.
