2025年初,由于跟踪共享、速度限制和机械问题,铁路的实时性能暴跌至30%,引发了改革呼声。
Via Rail’s on-time performance plummeted to 30% in early 2025 due to track sharing, speed limits, and mechanical issues, prompting calls for reform.
加拿大审计长卡伦·霍根(Karen Hogan)表示,尽管管理管理力强,维亚铁路公司必须改进其服务,理由是2025年初准时性能急剧下降至30%,2024年为51%,比2015年的71%下降至2015年的51%。
Canada’s auditor general, Karen Hogan, says Via Rail must improve its service despite strong management, citing a sharp drop in on-time performance to 30% in early 2025 and 51% for 2024—down from 71% in 2015.
延误的原因有:共用轨道、速度限制(尤其是2024年10月开始对多伦多-魁北克市走廊的主要限制)和火车机械问题。
Delays are attributed to shared tracks, speed restrictions—especially a major limit on the Toronto–Quebec City corridor starting October 2024—and mechanical issues with trains.
Hogan敦促与轨道拥有者进行更好的合作,以解决延误问题,Via已同意通过合作和法律手段解决拖延问题。
Hogan urged better collaboration with track owners to resolve delays, which Via has agreed to pursue through cooperative and legal means.
她还建议加强治理,包括进行自我评估和更新利益冲突规则。
She also recommended stronger governance, including self-assessments and updated conflict-of-interest rules.
虽然Via执行了许多建议,但它继续面临财政紧张,其业务费用在2024年是其收入的一倍多。
While Via has implemented many recommendations, it continues to face financial strain, with operating costs more than double its revenue in 2024.
