FED UP OF THE TRAIN COMMUTE FROM BASINGSTOKE TO LONDON?

Are you disillusioned by overcrowding on both the morning and evening train commute, along with poor customer service, inadequate parking facilities at the station and ultimately not getting value for money?

You may be aware that the Government has launched a public consultation to shape plans for future rail improvements, asking for our views on what the next operator of the South Western franchise (operating between Basingstoke and London Waterloo) should do to deliver the rail services that people want.

As a daily train commuter from Basingstoke to London, I have been approached to form a focus group to meet with Maria Miller MP Basingstoke to brainstorm what we want the rail companies to address in terms of bidding for the new franchise. Maria has called for a new ‘Commuters Charter’ for Basingstoke rail users – you can read  more by clicking on this link.

If you are a rail commuter from Basingstoke to London Waterloo and would interested in joining this focus group to improve our daily commute or would like any further information on what the work would entail then please contact me on 07973 826003 or

Many thanks
