Proportion of non-frequent scheduled bus services running on time (140) Metric type

Help text
Bus punctuality is defined as keeping public service buses to their scheduled bus departure times. This indicator is the percentage of non-frequent buses (fewer than 6 buses per hour) on time. This is measured by whether the bus departs within its 'on-time' window of 1 minute 0 seconds early to 5 minutes 59 seconds late. Buses that fail to run are treated as 'late' and are included in the calculations.

Figures come from bus operators as part of the DfT's (Department for Transport) Public Service Vehicle Survey and are published annually. This was previously reported as NI 178a.

Data is available at the local authority level (unitary authorities and county councils). Data is also published at the Integrated Transport Authority (ITA) level and London is the figure quoted for Transport for London.
