What the petition asks
Make sure the Evesham Train Station Ticket Box doesn't close.
I believe that older people who still go on trains might not have the ability to buy tickets online and they will still use the ticket box.
Why it was rejected
It was about a matter for a local council or devolved government, not the UK Government or Parliament.
We can’t accept petitions that request action at a local level.
You may wish to sign this petition which calls for a similar action but for the whole country:
Require train operators keep ticket offices and platform staff at train stations: Require train operators keep ticket offices and platform staff at train stations
You may be interested to know that there was a recent a debate in Parliament and a Committee 'evidence session' about railway ticket office closures. You can find out more here: https://ukparliament.shorthandstories.com/cet-railway-ticket-offices/index.html
