Rishi Sunak has been urged to cease the closure of rail ticket offices as elderly and disabled passengers will be deterred from rail travel due to complex ticket purchasing options.
the Labour Mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham asserted the closure of rail ticket offices is "uniting voters of all parties" and will ultimately "deter people from using the railway".
The Greater Manchester Mayor told Nick he believed the closures would push people back towards using their cars. When questioned by Nick as to how often he frequented his local ticket office, Mr Burnham replied: "I use them all the time" adding: "I'll go into the ticket office at Newton Le Willows train station all the time, I appreciate having a chat as well".
