A trial scrapping peak Tube and train fares on Fridays has begun in London today.
The new TfL initiative is part of a raft of special offers designed to lure commuters back to the city centre.
Peak fares will be axed on Fridays until May 31, under a £24million experiment to reverse the slump in passenger numbers.
Midweek Tube journeys are currently at about 85 per cent of pre-Covid levels, but this falls to 73 per cent on Fridays when many Londoners work from home.
The new cheaper Fridays scheme come after TfL struck an agreement with private rail companies.
It will be accompanied by discounts and special deals at cafes and restaurants over the next three months.There were minor delays on the Bakerloo Line on Friday morning, but a good service on all other Tube lines.
