Commenting on the independent review of TfL’s finances, John Dickie, Director of Strategy and Policy at London First, said:
“The independent panel’s welcome report looks creatively at how we pay for our transport services in London. The pandemic has broken TfL’s funding model, which is over-reliant on its fares. We will likely need a range of measures to fill the gap and the boundary charge which the Mayor is asking TfL to explore in detail could certainly be part of such a package. London can rise to the challenge – but central government must give London government the powers to do the job.”
