Campaigning for Leyton and Wanstead

Sign our petition - Passengers must not pay the price for Metronet failure

3.00.00pm UTC (GMT +0000) Sat 29th Sep 2007

"Following the disaster of Gordon Brown's PPP on the Tube where Metronet failed and London Underground were unable to manage contracts on time and on budget, we hereby call on the Mayor to set up sustainable business and financial arrangements so that Londoners will not pay any additional penalty for PPP failures.

In addition, essential capacity upgrades, modernisation of the tube network and new passenger lifts for step free access must be introduced no later than as set out in the original timetables.

Furthermore, on no account should staff levels at tube stations be reduced. Underground staff must be available to help passengers during all operational hours"

Leyton and Wanstead Liberal Democrats believe passengers of the tube must not pay the price for the Metronet failure. Please click on the following link to sign our online petition.
