The DfT has issued a consultation document on Community Rail.
This follows a passionate speech by Pete Wilkinson last month, in favour of community rail, at the ACoRP awards in Derby.
The consultation introduction sets the scene:
The Government believes community rail is well placed in ensuring the railway reflects the communities and customers it serves. Community rail policy was last reviewed in 2007 and in the decade since there has been considerable change, with community rail continuing to develop amid an evolving and growing rail network.
The purpose of this consultation is to provide those with an interest in community rail in England and Wales an opportunity to inform future policy
The consultation document can be found here.
