Petition UK Rail Fair Prices

More details

Cap on Rail Fares Required

Responsible department: Department for Transport

Under Labour, fare increases on many lines were limited to the rate of inflation plus 1%. However, from 2012 this has increased to inflation plus 3%. The increase should just be equal to inflation or less!

For the average UK resident, travel is the probably in the top 3 annual costs for the year !

The current price of taking a peak train into London is absolutely ridiculous!
