Petition Action

Keep all Railway Ticket offices open and have no forced redundancies.

Petition Details

Keep all ticket offices open as they are an essential part of the railway. The railway needs to be accessible for all and closing ticket offices would stop that.

Additional Information

Ticket office closure would stop people with disabilities such as visual impairments, people who may have forms of Dyslexia being able buy a ticket. While working for a railway company myself in a Ticket office when asking any passengers if they want ticket offices 100% of them have said they need them and they'd really struggle without them. Also many elderly people struggle to use ticket machines and on York station as specially the machines regularly stop working and are very slow.
