I know my constituents who use Southern are sick and tired - and indeed have been for a good while - with the poor service. In addition to the complaints I have received regarding regular disruption to service, I have also received correspondence from residents on the future of the manned ticket offices at Shoreham-by-Sea and Lancing, as well as the restoration of the subway at Shoreham-by-Sea station, the closure of which prevents the non-travelling public from crossing the road via the subway because of the location of the ticket barriers. The Shoreham Society organised a demonstration last weekend about this closure.
In order to address all of these concerns, I have organised a public meeting with Southern managers on Thursday 17 March 2016 at 18:30 in the Council Chamber at the Shoreham Centre, 2 Pond Rd, Shoreham-by-Sea, BN43 5WU. If you are a commuter‬, fee free to drop-by after work (if your train gets in on time!)
