Sheffield Supertram
Sheffield Supertram is one of the smaller operators in this archive — 8,532 recorded services from 6 Aug 2026 to 7 Nov 2026, around 91 a day — and it ran 97% of them to within five minutes, ahead of the national figure.
5,047 arrivals were recorded across the window, 4,892 of them within five minutes and 1 more than half an hour late. At this volume a single badly delayed working is worth a visible fraction of a percentage point.
Its week is strongly peaked: 99 services on Saturday, 7 November 2026 against 50 on Sunday, 1 November 2026, a swing of 2.0 times.
The average delay at destination was 0.5 minutes. No Sheffield Supertram service reached any day's list of the ten longest delays on the network.
The day-to-day spread is wide — 31 points between its best day, Wednesday, 4 November 2026 at 100%, and its worst, Saturday, 17 October 2026 at 69%.
Ranked on on-time share of recorded arrivals against the 34 operators with enough of them to compare, Sheffield Supertram comes third.

Every percentage among the bands is of the 5,047 services whose arrival reached the archive, not of all 8,532, and the bands are exclusive. 3,485 ran without an arrival being recorded, and nothing is claimed about those. Nothing was cancelled across the window, so counting cancellations leaves the figure unchanged. Delay is judged at the destination, a stricter test than the industry's own measure and not comparable with it. The on-time share and the average delay answer different questions.
