Why it was rejected

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

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about local police stations are a matter for the relevant police force, not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could contact your police and crime commissioner (PCC) to make a suggestion or a complaint about how your local area is policed: https://www.gov.uk/police-and-crime-commissioners
