Stop ScotRail removing fast trains from Inverclyde
We call on ScotRail to maintain the limited stop services between Glasgow and Inverclyde on both the Wemyss Bay and Gourock lines.
Why is this important?
ScotRail are proposing to end the fast, limited stop, servcies between Glasgow and Inverclyde. This will affect both the Gourock and Wemyss Bay lines. This would have a detrimental effect on people who rely on the trains and would represent a significant reduction in service in Inverclyde and in the quality of those services.
At a time when we are trying to persuade people to leave their cars at home, this risks undermining these messages and putting more pressure on Inverclyde's roads.
It also undermines local economic development and projects currently being undertaken by the UK and Scottish Governments and Inverclyde Council to reverse depopulation.
We are addressing this petition to both Scotrail and the Scottish Government, who own ScotRail.
By joining this campaign you can make your voice heard and tell ScotRail and the Scottish Government that we do not want these services cut.
