Open Law Village Train Station

Petition Details

I would like the Government to look into re-opening Law Village Train Station, all the trains from Carluke already run through the trainline going through Law so there would be no need for new tracks.

Additional Information

Law Village in South Lanarkshire has recently seen a large increase in population, with two new build estates, the public transport for the area is pretty non-existent, buses are extremely unreliable. If they do run, they don't run very late. A train station in Law would make it easier for people to visit the village & for residents to use public transport to get out, rather than having to rely on taxis/lifts.
