Liberal Democrat Councillor for Callowland Ian Stotesbury and Elected Mayor of Watford Peter Taylor have started a petition calling for Watford stations to be rezoned.

Cllr Ian Stotesbury said, 'Right now we're getting a raw deal in Watford when it comes to how much local commuters fork out in train fares. We're paying as much as £1000 a year more than commuters in Epping, who live further out of London.

I want Watford to be moved into Zone 6, a change that will make our fares cheaper and put money in the pocket of local commuters.'

So far over 4000 people have signed, and will be presenting the petition directly to Sadiq Khan on September 6th.
