Caroline Pidgeon: “Halve Tube fares before 7.30am”

 

Caroline Pidgeon, London Assembly member and our candidate for London Mayor, has come up with a  bright idea that has a range of benefits. She proposes that fares on all Transport for London rail services (including Underground, DLR, and Overground) should be halved for journeys before 7.30am.

As she says:

Half price fares on TfL’s Tube and rail services would really help some of London’s lowest paid workers who often have to work unsocial hours.  This is a genuine fare cut that can be delivered immediately.
