This line should be returned as soon as possible. This is used by many people and will just lead to further congestion on all other line which are already busy!!

This service was an essential part of travelling into Blackfriars from Beckenham pre covid. Although it is easy enough to change at Herne Hill currently, the morning Thameslink services to Blackfriars are now starting to get very busy - please reinstate our trains!

This is a very useful service that operates through south london and is helping to keep traffic off the roads which are already log jammed at most hours of the day.I am a cyclist and this service is very convenient for getting me into cental london where I can then alight and cycle through north london into Hertfordshire

I rely on the service from Beckenham Junction to Blackfriars as I know many others do.

Closure of this service will seriously inconvenience Residents who work in the City & should be reinstated as soon as possible after COVID Step4 is activated.

The rationale for this continued closure is low usage - er, yes, because there has been a pandemic! You couldn't make it up.

Reinstating the line will encourage more people to keep off the roads

This is an excellent service that links Beckenham with a station in the heart of the business area of London, really cutting commute times.

This is an essential public transport link. The Hayes line is at capacity so this service is a critical addition for a link to the City of London. How many times will long term capacity planning suffer for short term cost savings! The railways have been wrecked because of this.

Please keep the Beckenham to Blackfriars service. We have no underground in this borough if London and need to retain our links to inner London to help return the city economy back to ore COVID times

Prior to the pandemic we had considered moving away from the area due to the congestion and unreliability of the service from Shortlands to London Blackfriars. The introduction of the Beckenham Junction shuttle was a lifeline.

This service is extremely necessary especially as things start to open up and we start going back to work. These trains are generally packed both to and from Blackfriars and travelling on a different service I.e to Victoria would cause greater overcrowding issues.

The Beckenham Junction-Blackfriars service is really important to me. Please bring it back as part of the full timetable.

This line is an essential service for commuters; if withdrawn it creates extra pressure on the alternative options.
