Bexley Council Slams Southeastern’s Ticket Office Closure Plans
Bexley Council has fired a warning shot at Southeastern over plans to shut down ticket offices at eight of its stations. The council is urging the train operator to “think sensibly” before pushing ahead with the controversial cuts.
Ticket Office Closures Spark Backlash
The proposals have sparked anger among commuters and local officials alike. Bexley Council argues the move could leave passengers stranded without crucial in-person support.
Calls for Southeastern to Rethink
“We urge Southeastern to reconsider these plans,” a council spokesperson said. “Ticket offices provide vital help, especially for elderly and disabled travellers. They must not be scrapped without serious thought.”
