London Mayor Sadiq Khan has announced a freeze in Transport for London (TfL) fares until March 2025, saving travelers up to £90 a year. The decision aims to alleviate the cost-of-living crisis hitting Londoners, contrasting the 4.9% rise in national rail fares. Pay-as-you-go tickets, bus fares, and most Elizabeth line fares will be frozen, while travelcards and the cost of multiple pay-as-you-go journeys will see about a 5% increase. The freeze is part of a £123 million investment in the capital's transport services. The move has received positive reactions, with supporters highlighting the relief it brings to Londoners amidst the cost-of-living crisis.
