A MAJOR train operator serving stations in Comet country has announced it wants to find out from customers where improvements to their services can be made.
First Capital Connect will be investing in improved CCTV, customer information screens, additional help points and better public announcements across the 74 stations it manages.
The company operates services out of Knebworth, Stevenage, Hitchin, Baldock, Letchworth GC, Arlesey, Sandy and Biggleswade.
Each station has been surveyed and a series of consultation sessions will now take place, with First Capital saying they are seeking the views of its customers and stakeholders, including local councils, passenger groups, commuter associations and MPs.
Karen Boswell, customer services director for the company, said: "We value the opinions of all those who have an interest in our operations.
"We are keen to utilise this valuable collective knowledge and look forward to welcoming those who would like to come along and provide us with their feedback."
