Petition Action

Extend the Oyster system to include Hemel Hempstead.

Petition Details

Hemel Hempstead is a fast growing commuter town only 30 minutes from London. With London property prices rising fast more and more people are using Hemel as their base to work in London. Extending Oyster from Watford will make travel easier and more economical, assisting local economy growth.

Additional Information

This was last reported to be in discussion in 2013. Due to large population growth it's time to bring this back into discussion.

This would also bring all stations between Watford and Hemel Hempstead into the Oyster system.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because the issue you raise is not the responsibility of the Government or Parliament. The Oyster system is the responsibility of TfL, which is accountable to the London Assembly.

The London Assembly has its own petitions process. You can find out more about how to petition the London Assembly here:
