Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about the impact of HS2, but we're not sure if you want HS2 to be required to provide alternative footpaths during construction of the new rail line, after it is completed, or both.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
