| The fare freeze may have made things difficult for TfL's finances but London was already one of the most expensive cities to travel in. Travel is a fixed cost for workers so rises hit the most poorly paid hardest and in some cases make taking a job uneconomic. We could have the best transport system in the world if we just kept on putting up prices but if fewer and fewer people can afford it then what is the point? The Mayor has been both brave and right in putting this policy in place. |
