Greg meets with Tonbridge Line Commuters

PW

Greg met with members of the Tonbridge Line Commuters today to discuss current and future issues facing services out of Paddock Wood.

Both Greg and the TLC agreed that of primary importance will be ensuring that a flexible ticket system is in place and ready to go once Covid-19 restrictions start to be lifted- an outcome Greg has pushed for both in Parliament and with the Managing Director of Southeastern, David Statham, in a meeting last year, here.  

Other issues raised include ensuring a reliable service remains between Tonbridge and Maidstone – via Paddock Wood – and the reintroduction of direct services from Tunbridge Wells to Gatwick.
