Public Performance Measure (PPM): how we measure Performance & Punctuality
The standard measure used throughout the rail industry in Great Britain is the Public Performance Measure (PPM). This is a combined measure of how many trains timetabled to operate have run throughout the entire route and calling points and how many have arrived at their final destination within 4mins 59secs of their advertised time. The results of this measure are reported every four weeks.
