Mayor ken gives the green light to free kids’ travel
THOUSANDS of children from Westminster aged under-11 can travel free all day every day on the Tube and Docklands Light Railway when accompanied by an adult.
Free Tube travel for under-11s came into force on April 1 and follows the introduction of free travel on buses and trams for under 18s in full time education.
More than 10,000 under 18s in Westminster already hold under 16s and 16-17 year old photocards.
Mayor of London Ken Livingstone said: “We are continuing to bear down on the cost of travel for London’s families, and the extension of free travel on the tube to all day every day is another big step in reducing the pressures on Londoners’ pockets.” |
