Re-open the railway line to Louth Lincolnshire

Closed 615 signatures

What the petition asks

The Government should focus on re-opening the railway line to Louth in Lincolnshire in the future to come.
I want the Government to do this because Louth hasn't been any trains since a special train ran on the 22nd December 1980. After that, the line was closed and it was abandoned. I genuinely believe that re-opening the railway line to Louth (Lincolnshire) would greatly improve job prospects, a reinstated rail service to Louth which is the capital town of the Lincolnshire Wolds, a better social and economical resource, and so on. Please consider this a priority for re-opening in the future to come.
