What the petition asks
Coventry Arena Station opens soon, serving Ricoh Arena, Station to close for 1 hour after rugby & football matches finish. Get train company to run longer & more frequent trains when station opens to avoid having to close the station after matches.
London Midland (TOC) & Coventry City Council want to close station [meant to serve sports arena (Ricoh Arena) and associated retail park] for an hour after matches on safety grounds because London Midland refuse to set on longer or more frequent trains to cope with crowds.
