London public transport

You asked

I’m doing a report on public transport in London for a client and was wondering if you could help. Basically I’m trying to find the % of paying vs non paying or partially paying travellers who use TFL services. So, the breakdown of passengers paying full fare, not paying anything at all (freedom pass etc) and discounted/subsidised. In the discounted section, I’m looking for a further breakdown ie. students, children, welfare etc.
