The average ticket price paid in 2014 by the one million registered users of United Kingdom-based corporate rail booking platform Evolvi declined marginally year over year from £59.03 to £58.73.

The reduction was achieved despite U.K. rail companies raising published fares an average of 2.8 percent. "Increasing awareness of the benefits of booking rail in advance, together with the ability to create customized travel policies and plan using insightful management information, continue to bear down on average ticket values," said Evolvi trade relations director Jon Reeve. Evolvi is distributed to corporate clients through travel management companies.
