Anger over rail fare hikes understandable says Surrey Council’s Planning Minister

It is understandable people will be feeling angry about the 3.6 per cent rise in rail fares says Surrey’s Cabinet Member for Planning.

Mike Goodman commented he can see there will be frustration over the hikes, especially as people board carriages ‘ full to bursting’ or wait for delayed services.

He says the Council will continue to push for investment in infrastructure like Crossrail 2, which will boost capacity and drive economic growth in the region.
