What it asks

Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to ensure that greater consideration is given to the problems of noise and vibration generated by increasing levels of heavy freight on the rail network, and to consider what action can be taken to encourage freight operators to use more ‘track friendly’ rolling stock.

What the petitioner did first

Representations have been made to Network Rail, Scottish Power and the freight operator DB Schenker.
A Members Business debate took place in the Parliament on 11 June 2009.
