Arverio ranks 10th in Bavaria despite poor punctuality around Augsburg
Arverio runs local trains around Augsburg, including services towards Munich, Donauwörth and Ulm.
In a ranking published by Bavaria’s rail company, Arverio placed 10th among 28 networks, with 94.4 points out of 100 for operating quality.
Yet only 80.1% of its trains were punctual, one of the worst results in Bavaria, and planned seating capacity was provided as scheduled in 95% of cases.
The ranking may seem at odds with passengers’ experience because trains have also been cancelled during construction work.
The state rail company gives the greatest weight to short-notice cancellations and excludes cancellations caused by construction, while also accounting for how complex a network is to operate.
The busy Augsburg–Munich route may therefore help Arverio’s score.
The ranking is intended to compare operators while taking their operating conditions into account, so it only partly reflects what passengers encounter at stations.
Arverio ranked 10th among 28 Bavarian rail networks for operational quality, with 94.4 points out of 100.
Its punctuality rate was 80.1 percent, the fifth-worst in Bavaria.
The ranking was published by the Bavarian Railway Company (BEG), which coordinates local rail services on behalf of the state.
The BEG gives the greatest weight to short-notice cancellations and excludes cancellations caused by construction work.
The article says the ranking may not fully match passengers’ experiences, particularly on the busy Augsburg–Munich route.
