Rejected petition Make sure the Evesham Train Station Ticket Box doesn't close.

Rejected on 11 October 2023

Make sure the Evesham Train Station Ticket Box doesn't close.

I believe that older people who still go on trains might not have the ability to buy tickets online and they will still use the ticket box.

Why was this petition rejected?

It requests action at a local level.

We can’t accept petitions that request action at a local level.

You may wish to sign this petition which calls for a similar action but for the whole country:

Require train operators keep ticket offices and platform staff at train stations: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/636542

You may be interested to know that there was a recent a debate in Parliament and a Committee 'evidence session' about railway ticket office closures. You can find out more here: https://ukparliament.shorthandstories.com/cet-railway-ticket-offices/index.html

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