Train operating companies will use the December 2022 to make some significant changes to the national timetable to improve the service passengers receive. For example, Avanti West Coast is planning to restore more services, South Eastern is changing its timetable to improve efficiency and make it more adaptable to changes in demand, and timetables across Manchester and Birmingham are changing to improve performance.

These changes are intended to improve performance for passengers and provide services that respond to current passenger demand, and suit the needs of local communities.
