Chief executive Michael Roberts said in response to the news that Transport for London (TfL) is raising prices of photocards:
Higher TfL photocard fees, especially for the over-60s, will be unwelcome news to Londoners who continue to feel the pinch of the ongoing cost of living crisis and some of the most expensive public transport fares in Europe.
Annual index-linked increases might in future avoid big hikes in fees, but it’s disappointing that more isn’t being done to soften the blow this year for 60+ card holders on lower incomes.
Londoners will be wondering what further unpleasant revenue-raising surprises TfL might have in store over the coming months.
