A Q&A with Chris Bowling, Head of Marketing and E-Commerce at Best Western Hotels to learn about their commitment to digital inclusion....
West Midlands Railway (founded by West Midlands Trains) first fired up its engines back in 2015 and now operates over 400,000 trains that transport nearly 70 million passengers per year. What makes West Midlands Railway (WMR) so special is its consistent push to provide the best service for its valued travellers. WMR works hard to ensure that passengers have a wonderful, high quality customer experience from start to finish every time.
West Midlands Railways is one of the busiest travel operators in the UK. Operating over 1,300 services a day and managing 150 stations in total. In addition, GOV.uk reported that the West Midlands is one of the most ethnically diverse counties in the UK, bursting with cultures from all over the globe. It is crucial that their website can provide information on rail strikes, tickets and timetable changes for all their website visitors, regardless of their background.
