It is not good enough that London Overground services are still missing Hackney stops. I have already received a commitment from the Deputy Mayor for Transport, Heidi Alexander, that TfL will investigate this matter and apply pressure to the train operator (ARL) to prevent continued disruption and inconvenience. However today I’ve written to the Freedom of Information (FOI) team at TfL to find out exactly how often Hackney commuters miss out.

I will update you when I receive a reply. If you’d like a direct update, or if you have any examples of London Overground skipping Hackney stops, please email me at meg.hillier.mp@parliament.uk with ‘London Overground’ in the subject line.
