Description

London commuters brace for higher travel costs next year as the Mayor confirms a 5.8% fare increase for the Underground, effective in March. Despite a national rail fare freeze, TfL services will not be exempt. However, Travelcards will remain frozen until 2027, and bus/tram fares will stay the same. The Tube fare hike is part of a £2.2bn funding deal, while the bus/tram fare freeze is an emergency cost-of-living measure funded by City Hall. Pay-as-you-go Tube fares will increase, but capped at £20p, aiming to minimize impact on daily commuters.
