CrossCountry

CrossCountry is part of the Arriva group, one of the leading providers of passenger transport in Europe. Arriva employs more than 34,000 people and delivers over 1 billion passenger journeys across 10 European countries each year.

Britain's railways play an integral part in delivering sustainable transport; therefore all railway companies need to adopt sustainability as a fundamental component of their business. CrossCountry covers the three countries of Great Britain, with services running from Scotland to Cornwall, The North West to the South Coast and from Wales to East Anglia - the largest geographical coverage of any UK passenger train operator.

To achieve their sustainability mission and tangibly realise the benefits, CrossCountry has a strategy which addresses the three key themes of sustainability: Social, Environmental and Economic - with all activities directly impacting one or more theme. Cross Country Trains are proudly supporting local wildlife to benefit the planet, passengers and communities. Not only have Cross Country Trains involved their teams with planting, they've handed out 800 wildflower seed packets at local events. Read more about their strategy here.
