Tring and Berkhamsted Liberal Democrats' Response to the West Midlands Rail Franchise Consultation
Tring and Berkhamsted are two important stations served by the suburban services currently run by London Midland. The rail services are now attracting more and more commuters coming not only from those two towns but also from the surrounding countryside as much as 20 miles away. Many commuters are now reaching the stations by car and there are consequently serious capacity problems. The car parks are full by 0930 most days and latecomers are parking in surrounding residential areas, on roads and in the nearby lanes.
