Petition Action

Increase the frequency of trains on the Elizabeth Line

Petition Details

I would like the Government and TFL to work together to increase the frequency of trains on the Elizabeth Line especially during peak times. As a passenger, I am very concerned about overcrowding and feel very unsafe. Passengers are tightly packed together which can lead to dangerous situations.

Additional Information

Increased overcrowding can lead to passengers being crushed, sexually abused and pick pocketed. As well as the increase of transmitting infectious diseases.Overcrowded trains can also make emergency evacuations more difficult.
In addition to this, I have witnessed passengers in altercations because of not being able to get on trains or being crushed.
These concerns highlight the need for adequate train capacity and effective crowd management strategies before a serious accident occurs.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for. Decisions about London Underground operating times are a matter for TFL, not the Government or House of Commons. As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.

You may therefore wish to start a petition to the London Assembly, asking them to take this matter forward with TFL. You can find out how to do this here: www.london.gov.uk/about-us/london-assembly/petitions
