This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

We can't accept your petition because the issue you raise is not the responsibility of the Government or Parliament. Crossrail is operated in London by TfL, this issue is therefore the responsibility of the London Assembly.

The London Assembly however has its own petitions process. You can find out more about how to petition the London Assembly here:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
