We believe in green public transport – with rail travel being one of the most environmentally friendly ways to travel, Southeastern continues to work together with industry partners, contractors, and suppliers to reduce our environmental impact and measure and report on our performance. We’re always looking for ways to improve how we work and go beyond what the law and regulation require of us
