You asked
How much has this survey cost?
Why no Tarriff board at Heathrow and other airports showing Fares to West End ,Westminster etc?
Now that costs have risen so dramatically so surely your report is irrelevant?
what a waste of time
and resources
Please treat this as official and answer under the FLOI act
