The Rail Delivery Group has announced an extension to the current consultation on how tickets are sold at stations.
The new end date of the consultation will be Friday 1st September. This will provide more time for as many people as possible to take part and provide feedback to one of the independent passenger watchdogs, Transport Focus or London Travel Watch.
These are profound changes for the way in which railway stations operate and I have major concerns for the impact on those who are disabled or in any way not digitally enabled.
