Notice of petition

 

Received from Mr Denis Fuller, 178 signatures.

 

Many Surrey Heath residents work and/or fly from London Heathrow (LHR). We have no direct rail or bus links to LHR. The pressure on politicians to step up action against global warming and climate change has intensified recently. A fast bus service to LHR would carry passengers who otherwise must use cars or taxis. When I was a Surrey county councillor (2009-2017) I used to regularly use the X26 fast bus service (Croydon to LHR). Quite recently the operators replaced the single decker bus with a double decker. Such a service could involve buses starting from Farnborough and stopping at the Meadows, Camberley RMAS gate, Camberley Fire Station, Bagshot, Windlesham, Sunningdale Station, Virginia Water, Egham.

 

A response will be tabled at the meeting.

Decision:

That the response, attached to this decision sheet as Annex 2, be approved.
