This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition mandatory discount for Bus Replacement services on train journies
More details
Train tickets in the UK are already among the most expensive in Europe. such a premium is paid for a specific service. It is entirely unreasonable for the public to pay this premium only to have an inferior service delivered. Particularly when such a service is already available at a lower cost.
We petition the Government to impose a mandatory discount of no less than 50% on all train journeys which are, in whole or in part, completed by a bus replacement service instead of a train. This ban to be in effect even if the service is as a result of planned works.
This petition closed early because of a General Election
