SOUTHEASTERN TRAINS NEW TIMETABLE

That this House welcomes the introduction of the revised Southeastern timetable with improved frequency, but notes that as a consequence all peak services from Abbey Wood, Woolwich Arsenal and Charlton to Blackheath and Lewisham have been withdrawn; further notes that passengers who previously used this service are now required to transfer on to local bus services or the Docklands Light Railway to reach their destination; supports calls from London TravelWatch for those passengers previously commuting on this service to be appropriately compensated; and calls for Southeastern to reinstate a peak service between these stations in their timetable to be published in May 2010.
