This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Responsibility for local public transport is devolved to local councils or Mayors, and national public transport is the responsibility of individual transport operators, not the Government or Parliament. Public amenities are a a matter for individual local authorities, and commercial organisations are responsible for any amenities they provide.

You could start a new petition calling on the Government to work with local authorities and transport providers to provide people with hand sanitiser and Personal Protective Equipment.

We have published a petition calling on the Government to make hand washing facilities compulsory in all public places, which you might like to sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/301482

We have also published a petition calling on the Government to make free hand sanitisers available to everyone, which you might like to sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/300758
