Cllr Gary Malcolm informs Acton residents of future rail cuts
Gary Malcolm, Lib Dem Ealing Acton & Shepherds Bush Spokesperson, handed leaflets out at Acton Main Line train station last week to encourage train users to contact Transport for London (TfL) as part of their Crossrail consultation.
The leaflets contained details of not only how to contact TfL but also to inform residents and rail users about the scheduled cutback in trains on the Greenford Line (including Acton Main line) that are due to take place in December.
Gary Malcolm, Ealing Acton & Shepherds Bush Spokesperson, said: "It is good news that Transport for London have been persuaded to include Acton Main Line in the preferred Crossrail route - Local Lib Dems and other community groups have said for a long time that more stations need to be included so Crossrail is effective."
Gary Malcolm added: "It is a scandal that people who use the Acton Main line station are going to suffer with less trains per hour at the peak times. Fares keep rising. Myself and other passengers are being forced to put up with an unreliable, infrequent and expensive service."
The Liberal Democrats want to see more people informed about Crossrail. If people want to contact TfL with comments about Crossrail and whether it should stop at Acton Main line station they can contact them in the following ways:
