Petition Action

Provision of guards on trains a stipulation for all new operator contracts.

Petition Details

There is a growing incidence of certain crimes on British trains that are not reflected In other EU countries, where guards on trains are the norm. There is a feeling of vulnerability when travelling at night and at weekends. Public safety should be paramount.

Additional Information

While figures show that 'reported' crime is showing a decrease, year on year, sexual offences are at a record high. At no place in the Office Of Rail Regulation on line policy is any mention made of any plans to address this. Health and Safety regulations are employee focussed rather than reflecting passenger requirements.
