It is welcome news that there is to be a rethink concerning the planned suspension of the Gatwick Express.

How ironic that this should have been proposed as a measure to ease congestion when train travel is becoming more popular due to improved efficiency and better catering and IT services for passengers.

Let's hope the powers that be see sense and give serious thought to reinstating space for bikes as well.

A bit of joined-up thinking can only aid moves towards a better-integrated transport system.
