Centre for London, Transport Survey

Survey of Londoners on their use of public transport, and the associated costs and barriers with using public transport.

A bus or tram and walking (all the way to a destination rather than to a bus stop or station) are the modes of travel London residents use most frequently, with seven in ten (69%) Londoners saying they use these for work or leisure at least once a week.
On average, London residents spend £137 or approximately 7% of their take home income a month on transport costs (e.g. their car, public transport and travel services such as taxis, bike hire or car clubs).
London residents are most likely to say crowding, cost and availability are barriers to increasing their use of the tube or rail.
