Use of daily travelcards
Request ID: FOI-1460-1920
Date published: 10 September 2019
You asked
Hi,
Hope you’re well.
I’d like to make a request under the Freedom of Information Act about the use of daily travelcards on TfL.
- What were the prices of daily travelcards for different zones for each of the past five calendar years? And what were the values of daily pay-as-you-go caps over the same period?
- How many daily travelcards were purchased over the last five years? Would it be possible for this to be broken down into calendar years?
Thanks so much,
We answered
