Rail Partners responded to ORR's consultation on Network Rail’s timetable publication licence requirement.
The response sets out Rail Partners' opposition to proposals to reduce timetabling deadlines from T-12 (i.e. timetables are confirmed twelve weeks before operations) to T-8 on a permanent basis, as this would have a negative impact on the ability of passengers to plan their journeys in advance and the ability of freight operators to meet the needs of their customers.
