Rejected petition Ban overcrowding on transports services due to coronavirus pandemic

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand that you are concerned about overcrowding on public transport during the Covid-19 outbreak, but it's not clear exactly what you want the Government to ban, as there is no set definition of overcrowding.

You could start a new petition stating more clearly what restrictions you want the Government to impose on public transport during the outbreak.

The Government has published Covid-19 guidance for transport operators, which outlines the importance of social distancing and other mitigations: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-safer-transport-guidance-for-operators/coronavirus-covid-19-safer-transport-guidance-for-operators#social-distancing

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