Train services up to London Bridge will be cut under plans proposed by Souther Railway

Cllr Alex Feakes was delighted to be asked to present to Lewisham Council a petition on behalf of residents of Honor Oak, Sydenham, Forest Hill and elsewhere campaigning against cuts to rail services on the line threatened by Southern Railway. The on-line petition was organised by the Forest Hill Society on behalf of other local civic groups and by the time of the presentation had reached over 700 signatures.

The Liberal Democrats are also running a petition against the cuts in train services, which can be found using the link below.
