The petition text in English - not a brilliant automatic translation, but I have made minimal adjustment rather than risk damaging the message further by adding any incorrect interpretations.
No to the closure of the railway line B^ziers - Neussargues - Clermont-Ferrand
France will organize in Paris in December 2015 at a world conference on the environment, the future of the planet and the climate.
Programmed decision to close the line at 1 January 2016, to continue to pollute with increasing bus and trucks on highway driving is against the ambitions of the French exemplarity. I consider that the SNCF▸ B^ziers - Neussargues - Clermont-Ferrand is useful and indispensable for a flourishing country life, a balanced spatial development, the environment, to public health.
I say to myself:
- Against the closure of the line,
- Counter at all road and highway policy,
- For a public transport policy which gives priority to rail,
- For the transport of goods and passengers by rail as an essential element in the fight against climate change and pollution.
I claim loud and clear:
- The maintenance and renovation of the national passenger train "Aubrac" as Territory Equilibrium Train (TET) with modern electrical equipment and dual-mode diesel
- The resumption of passenger trains "TER" with the regional authorities concerned,
- The lifting of the ban on movement of freight trains from the south-B^ziers Marvejols.
- The continued employment of Railway for a railway quality public service
