From the BBC:

Train fares will not increase this year, Govia says


Louis Rambaud, chief customer officer for Govia, has been answering questions on BBC Radio Sussex

As Govia Thameslink Railway prepares for renationalisation on 31 May, the company's chief customer officer shared his vision for the future with BBC Radio Sussex.

Louis Rambaud has worked in countries including his native France, as well as Germany, the Netherlands and now the UK.

He talked about what renationalisation meant for the company and commuters, as well as its current services including ticket prices, customer satisfaction and relationship with employees.

The future was bright for commuters, he said, but people who talked to BBC Sussex about their experience on services, said more could be done.

Something of a non-story given that the rail fare freeze was a government (DfT) decision?
