Petition update, 04 November 2008

More details from petition creator

In December 2008, the Walsall-Wolverhampton passenger rail service will be withdrawn.

It is a vital link for many Walsall and Wolverhampton residents, providing a quick and reliable connection between the two boroughs and giving much needed access to connecting rail services. Existing bus services take over 40 minutes to cover the 15-minute rail journey.

Thanks to the increase in reliability and punctuality on the Walsall-Wolverhampton line, the number of people taking advantage of this service has risen significantly to 60,000 per year. The planned withdrawal will result in a great opportunity lost to build on this success further.

I urge you to direct the Department for Transport to ensure that this service remains in operation as part of the franchise agreement.
