Network Rail has been told to improve the reliability of trains in Wales after fewer than 70% of services were on time.

The rail regulator said Network Rail's services in Wales have "declined considerably", in a critical report.

The number of cancellations in the year between April 2021 to March 2022 almost doubled from the previous 12 months, the Office of Rail and Road (ORR» (Office of Rail and Road formerly Office of Rail Regulation - about)) said.

Network Rail admitted its performance "isn't where passengers want it to be".

The ORR also said the company's performance in the Wales and west of England region had deteriorated far quicker than other regions, with particularly poor performance in Wales.
