Accompanying this are changes to tannoy announcements, with final calls being made four minutes prior to departures. While the intention is to enhance safety and punctuality, this change has faced backlash from commuters expressing feelings of frustration and patronization regarding the early removal of trains, citing poor management of platform information as a concern.
