"The side gate was manned by temporary staff from a seperate company who we have had to cut now due to the financial climate."
Duncan,
Just out of interest, which part of the 'financial climate' has affected the ability to ensure appropriate staffing?
Has there been a significant fall in passenger numbers, for example, resulting in decreased revenue? Or have the receipts from increased fare prices been somehow witheld?
I realise there is some economic disturbance right now - I just don't see the direct connection between that and the ability to provide reasonable access to the station.
