Fund lower train fares

Closed 133 signatures

What the petition asks

I believe the prices of trains are horrendous and make it difficult for many people to use this to travel. It can be cheaper to travel by car for many, which can increase unwanted emissions.
We want the Government to the fund lower train fares, particularly for younger people and students who may struggle to afford travel. Prices should be lowered to help reduce cost of living pressures, as so many people are struggling at the moment.
