Rejected petition The Half and Half London Travelcard

More details

For sometime now while commuting to working in the morning, i have noticed that there are many London commuters like me that tend to use the underground tube network after 9.30am which qualifies for an off-peak travel rate.

However I feel most like me will be leaving work at the end of the day around 6pm but because this is before 7pm, they would have to pay a peak travel rate.

Therefore if the commuter has bought a weekly travelcard, they will have no choice but to but at a peak rate.

I therefore propose a half and half London Travelcard that allows you to travel between 9.30am to 6pm and will be priced at a rate between peak and off-peak.

This will help to save money for the cash tight commuters who are struggling to meet travel cost in these hard economic times.
