*Phase 2 (Monday 21 October until Thursday 2 January) *
The aim of this campaign is to raise awareness of planned rail engineering work over the Christmas and New Year bank holiday period. We are encouraging leisure and business passengers to plan ahead and check if their train journey is affected before they travel.
After extensive passenger and stakeholder research in May 2024, we have developed a new creative design which is an evolution of the previous stick person creative design. This is the second time we’ve used this new creative design.
Phase 2 of our Christmas campaign will be promoted across all channels including paid media (digital, social, billboards, radio, press). Our messaging in this phase is stronger than the previous phase, where we manage passenger expectations by calling out the significant changes to services and longer journey times. Furthermore, we are supporting our regional and TOC colleagues by uplifting paid media in highly impacted geographical areas (towns/cities).
