The ABFLY mission
The mission of the Abbey Flyer Users’ Group (a.k.a “AbFly”) is to represent users and potential users of the Watford Junction to St Albans Abbey branch line (a.k.a.”The Abbey Line”), to fight for the long-term future of the line and campaign for further investment.
Our Aims and Campaigns
Our ‘top level’ aims are to:
- UPHOLD QUALITY: Watch for, and challenge, any lowering of standards.
- IMPROVE THE SERVICE: Enhance the overall ‘product’, thus benefiting existing users as well as attracting new custom, encouraging people to switch from road to rail.
- BUILD-IN SUSTAINABILITY: To put the line on a more sustainable footing, both operationally and environmentally, thus ensuring its long term prosperity and ‘value for money’ as a public transport facility.
