Maida Vale Tube: Proposal to reduce ticket office opening hours

We've heard on the grapevine that London Underground may reduce the opening hours of the ticket office at Maida Vale station.

We beleive the proposal is to move to opening hours of:

Monday - Friday 7.30am - 10.30am
Saturday 11am - 1.30pm
Sunday 2.30pm - 4pm

This would contrast with the current situation where the ticket offices are open most of the day.

Clearly, there is a balance to be struck here - most people now prefer to use the machines to re-load, meaning less work for the offices themselves. That said, it is important that any reductions do not materially affect the ability of people to travel.

What do you think? We would be genuinely interested to know how local residents feel about this proposal. E-mail maidavale@maidavaleconservatives.com to give us your views.
