Question 18762 — land use planning

Summary

Mr. Jean-Paul Dufrègne alerts the Minister, to the Minister of State, Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, responsible for transport, on the consequences in rural areas of the closures and reductions in opening hours of station ticket offices. The threats of closure hovering over several SNCF counters in the Allier department, those of Saint-Germain-des-Fossés, Commentry and Gannat, are meeting strong opposition among Bourbonnais users, elected officials, agents and in general, all the inhabitants of the territory. These closure projects contravene land use planning policies. They reinforce the remoteness and disintegration of public services, accentuating the feeling of abandonment of populations who live in departments like Allier. In addition, maintaining these counters is a necessity given the digital divide which still leaves certain areas of the department without reliable internet access. Finally, these ticket office closure projects raise the question of the local railway presence, in terms of lines, services and stations, in areas where residents are forced to travel and very often have no other choice than to take the train to go to work or seek treatment. He asks him what measures the The Government intends to take steps to halt the dismantling of the local public rail service and to impose consultation work between the regions, which have the competence of transport organizing authority, the SNCF Mobilités and the municipal and departmental elected officials so that no closure of counters is decided without prior agreement and without reasonable alternative solutions adapted to the territory being proposed.
