Rejected petition To reopen Polesworth train station.

to stake on board the pledge to reopen the station, it would serve the community and public for transportation links from the village into Tamworth, Birmingham and London Euston

More details

the current pledge to tackle decarbonisation within the UK is a credible scheme, but it we as residents within the catchment area of Polesworth, have to relay on cars or buses to get to the nearest train station, then what is the point, if the station was reopened it would benefit the community and take unnecessary car journeys off the road as the public could travel by train instead
