Lewisham Council passed a unanimous motion on 24th September that they would oppose the cuts to our train services.

I attended the Lewisham Transport Liaison Meeting held on 8 September representing the Forest Hill Society. At the meeting, chaired by Cllr John Muldoon, it was announced that the Council was dropping its opposition to the cuts to our services. Apparently they had been persuaded, in response to their letters of objection, that the overall service being provided was the best available. Any improvement to our service would lead to a worsening of services overall.

The meeting called for a full explanation of this decision to be published by the Mayor which the Chairman agreed to request. If I see the explanation, I will publish it here.
