Some Avanti West Coast passengers are already seeing a difference
Network Rail has pledged to reduce instances of passengers rushing to platforms at Euston station, by permitting earlier boarding of some services. The Government-owned company said it has started allowing passengers travelling on around 40% of Avanti West Coast services from the London station to board trains 20 minutes before departure. This will be increased to around 55% in the run-up to Christmas.
Ms Haigh said: “I am pleased to see immediate improvements being made at Euston station to reduce the risk of overcrowding, drive up standards and deliver a better experience for passengers. For too long, Euston station simply has not been good enough. “That’s why I have tasked Network Rail and operators with delivering a clear plan to alleviate some of the issues passengers are facing while we work on a long-term solution for the station.
