Question
To ask the Scottish Government what the potential impact of ScotRail's proposed service reductions will be on areas with higher levels of multiple deprivation.
Answer
ScotRail will continue to serve the diverse range of communities across Scotland, reflecting their changing travel needs. ScotRail’s proposed timetable for May 2022 would provide more seats than the current timetable and the vast majority of customers will find either no change to their current service or that their service improves with a more regular interval between services and/or some more trains provided each day.
