Streatham MP launches petition to oppose ticket office closures in her constituency - BrixtonBuzz

The government has been forced to extend the public consultation on controversial plans to close over 1,000 train station ticket offices – including over 100 in South London alone – in a victory for passengers, campaigners and rail staff.

Passengers were initially given just 21 days to have their say on ticket office cuts. However, after the threat of legal challenges from disabled activists and Metro Mayors and over 170,000 consultation submissions to transport watchdogs, the deadline has now been extended until 1 September.
