PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(19 November 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she plans to take steps to help improve the (a) reliability and (b) frequency of rail services serving Chichester constituency.

Asked by:
Jess Brown-Fuller (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

There are no current plans to make changes to rail services serving Chichester constituency following on from significant changes earlier in the year.

Following a public consultation, a new West Coastway timetable was put in place from 2 June 2024. This redesigned the timetable for services in the Chichester area and doubled the number of trains towards Worthing and Brighton from two trains per hour to four trains per hour, creating a half-hourly service. This provides faster journey options towards Brighton and better spacing on the Southampton service.
