C-charge vote show starts on the trains
Date published: 08 September 2008
It was full steam ahead today for the campaign to encourage people to vote in December’s congestion charge referendum.
At busy Mills Hill station, on the Chadderton-Middleton border, Oldham Council leader Councillor Howard Sykes and the deputy leader of Rochdale Council, Councillor Irene Davidson, herself a Manchester commuter, were on the platform telling people they believed a congestion charge would lead to more carriages and less overcrowding.
Commuters agreed that extra carriages would ease the cattle-truck conditions on rush-hour trains.
