Rejected petition Put more bins in train stations

Put more bins (waste recepticles) in train stations (places where people can catch or disembark trains)

More details

It's an absolute - if you pardon my language - pisstake that in a large train station like Leeds I have to walk 100 metres to find a place to dispose of litter and this is a common theme in train stations up and down the country. In order to reduce littering and increase passenger convenience this should be amended immediately.

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 only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about maintenance of railway stations, including provision of litter facilities, are a matter for the station owner, not the UK Government or Parliament.

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