TfL prevented 7,283 people from travelling during 11 months of coronavirus restrictions on network
Almost 4,000 people were issued with fixed-penalty notices (FPNs) for not wearing a face covering on public transport in London when it was compulsory to do so, and thousands more were prevented from travelling or told to leave the capital’s network, official figures show.
Mandatory wearing of masks on Transport for London (TfL) services was put in place to help stop the spread of Covid-19. Face coverings stopped being a condition of carriage from 24 February this year after the shift in the government’s approach towards living with coronavirus.
