A PUBLIC meeting to discuss local rail services will be held in Biggleswade next month.

The meeting, at Stratton House Hotel, on Thursday, May 8, at 8pm, will be hosted by local MP Alistair Burt. Management from First Capital Connect will also attend the meeting giving commuters the opportunity to quiz them on services between Biggleswade and London.

"Of particular interest will be the increase in fares, parking and access to Biggleswade station," said Mr Burt.

"Increased contact in this way between First Capital Connect and rail users on this section of the line can only benefit all those concerned. I am urging people to come along if they have issues or concerns about the way in which the local railway line is being operated.
