Chris Grayling has written to TFL, Southern and South West Trains to request that Epsom station is included in Zone 6. For years people have argued for the move which would allow people to use Oyster cards at the station, making travel from the station to London easier and cheaper. The current redevelopment of the station provides the perfect opportunity for new ticket machines.

A number of stations which are further from central London, such Epsom Downs, Tattenham Corner and Tadworth stations have been included in Zone Six after pressure from residents and local MP Chris Grayling – but Epsom has been snubbed. If you would like to support the campaign, please write to Chris or sign the online petition at http://www.epsomguardian.co.uk/zone6.
