Make railcards accessible to all to reduce the cost of public transport.

Closed 81 signatures

What the petition asks

Currently railcard access ends at the age of 30 until the age of 60, unless specific circumstances. These ages are completely arbitrary and all should be granted access to a railcard if they see the benefit. This makes public transport cheaper which reduces road traffic and carbon emissions.
There should be a railcard available for people between the ages of 30 and 60.
