Overview
- From March 2026, pay‑as‑you‑go Tube and TfL rail fares will rise, with Zone 1 peak moving from £2.90 to £3.10 and off‑peak from £2.80 to £3.00.
- Single Elizabeth line journeys between central London and Heathrow will increase by 11.5% to £15.50.
- Daily and weekly pay‑as‑you‑go caps and Travelcards will be frozen until March 2027, with concessionary products such as Zip, 18+ Student and 60+ Oyster unchanged.
- Bus and Croydon tram fares will remain at £1.75 until July 2026 under a City Hall‑funded cost‑of‑living measure, with the Hopper fare unchanged.
- Most pay‑as‑you‑go increases are capped at 20p, the proposals still require a Mayoral Decision, and potential tweaks depend on any government compensation for Travelcard revenue, as campaigners warn of impacts on low‑income riders.
