What the petition asks
The c2c grays train station allows you to use a zip/ oyster card to get on and off the train so I believe the district should continue to run from upmister to ockendon and aveley as well as grays. Theses areas are growing rapidly and see alot of students and adults working or studying in london.
This a cheaper opportunity for people who use public transport as well as it becoming mode developed and is a fresh start to these key areas in thurrock

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
