Rachel has raised concerns about the proposed closure of the ticket office at Redditch Railway Station.
A number of concerned residents have written to Rachel about the proposals, and the town’s MP has ensured their voices are heard by taking part in the consultation on the changes.
In a letter submitted as part of the consultation, Rachel has urged rail operators to consider the impact of the proposed ticket office closures on blind, partially sighted and disabled people.
Rachel said:
“Understandably a number of constituents have contacted me about the proposed closure of ticket offices and the impact this would have on their access to the railways.
“The rail operators must take into account how their proposals will affect those who rely on ticket offices the most.”
