In 2024, the counts were carried out from 5 to 13 October. These counts are a non-representative snapshot of the whole year,\" the SNCB says from the outset. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By 2023, the number of passengers departing from Comines will have risen to 637.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2024, departing from Comines station: 469 passengers (weekdays; Monday to Friday), 140 (Saturdays) and 127 passengers (Sundays). If we count weekday passengers (469)... <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roughly speaking, that's a fall of 26.374% = 168 fewer passengers in 1 year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An example of the details (I've been contacting the SNCB several times a year since 2017).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. The station has been closed since June 2013. YES, we were the first city that the SNCB they closed the station = We have a terminal to buy tickets (that time) no personal SNCB to use the terminal, if a week (during the week of closure).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. No notice board for timetables.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Lack of maintenance by the SNCB (failure to raise platforms, change of rubbish bins by a private company).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Lack of consultation between LES TEC and SNCB for better connections.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Yes, that's the list of examples I'm giving you! I can give more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The SNCB's SINGLE response;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    ** Comines station is a small station. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    For the SNCB, a major station = +\/- 6,000 passengers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Comines-Warneton = 18,294 inhabitants (figures at 1 January 2025)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Examples: Ypres: 35,550 inhabitants (1 January 2024) = 1,123 passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Even a town as densely populated as Ypres is a small station. Let's take a look at Mouscron; <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Mouscron = 60,000 inhabitants (since December 2024); The number of passengers in Mouscron will be 1,910 in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Here are a few examples from the SNCB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I'm still talking to the SNCB or the TEC about improving public transport in Comines.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
