The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will take steps to implement contactless ticketing at Dorking Deepdene station.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

We have committed to expanding Pay As You Go (PAYG) contactless ticketing to further stations in the South East and recently announced that PAYG with contactless would be extended to a further 49 stations in 2025, including stations that are within the Dorking area; Dorking (Main), Box Hill and Westhumble, Reigate, and Leatherhead. Further details on any wider expansion of PAYG will be announced in due course.
