County councillors have called on London Mayor Sadiq Khan to drop proposals to withdraw Day Travelcards.
Currently, passengers can use the Travelcards for unlimited travel on a range of Transport for London services – including Underground, buses trams and rail services.
That motion – proposed by the executive member for highways and transport Cllr Phil Bibby – said the plan was a ‘method to generate additional income for TfL’.Proposing the motion, Conservative Cllr Bibby suggested the withdrawal of Day Travelcards could increase costs by seven per cent for an individual in the county and 16 per cent for a family.
And he said: “This council must convey the message that Sadiq Khan needs to rethink this absurd idea.” He said that for people to move away from their cars, transport alternatives needed to be more convenient and more economically sustainable. And fellow Lib Dem Cllr Paul Zukowskyj suggested it was ‘a false economy’, asking whether it would make our global city look a bit less global.“Doesn’t the Mayor want us to travel into London?” he asked.
