Almost 2m ‘tap-ins’ were made across the capital’s tube and bus services before 10am on Monday
London Underground had its busiest morning since before the first coronavirus lockdown in 2020, although journeys to school may have played a bigger role than work commutes in the surge in transport use in the capital.
Rush hour journeys on the tube were up 17% from last Tuesday, while buses saw 39% more passengers, according to Transport for London figures for the period to 10am on Friday.
