Written question asked by Roz Savage (Liberal Democrat) on Friday, 28 August 2026, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 2 September 2026. It was answered by Keir Mather (Labour) on Tuesday, 8 September 2026 on behalf of the Department for Transport.


Great Western Railway: Fares

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many and what proportion of rail journeys between Kemble and London Paddington are made using Advance tickets rather than regulated fare products.

Answer

The Department does not centrally hold information on how many, or what proportion of, rail journeys between Kemble and London Paddington were made on Advance tickets rather than regulated products. While detailed fares data exist within industry systems, the Department does not routinely compile journey‑by‑journey comparisons and producing this information would require bespoke analysis.
