LUL Ticket Office Staffing levels
In message . 145, David
Jackman writes Ian Jelf wrote in : But I guess it beats having them closed completely, which was the original plan. I agree with you (although unstaffed stations are unpopular with the public at large, I can tell you, from a safety/security point of view). *That* point was being made on Tyneside in 1980! The plan wasn't unmanned stations, it was to reduce ticket office opening hours and close some entirely. Okay, I see what you mean . If - as was the root of my problem - you can't *find* a member of staff, though, that effectively renders the place unmanned, even if it isn't. If you see what I mean! :-) You will find a number of central area stations (e.g. Temple, Mansion House, Aldgate) where the ticket office is closed at weekends and some others (e.g. Moorgate) where the weekend hours are very restricted indeed (11.00-15.30 on Saturday, closed Sunday). They are all in or close to The City, though, in areas that are very quiet. Baker Street is a very different affair, I would say. Whatever the day. -- Ian Jelf, MITG Birmingham, UK Registered Blue Badge Tourist Guide for London and the Heart of England http://www.bluebadge.demon.co.uk |
