Dartford is such an important interchange for lines through an outer
London borough. The case is compelling, but TfL won't hear of it.
Actually, I can't believe it would actually cost *that* much in the
grand scheme of the TfL budget and would actually make a real
difference for us Z1-6 Travelcard holders...
It might cost *that* much if they have to give up the £2.50 made every time
someone with travelcard 1-6 cover wants to go there - as I did last
Saturday.
That's ridiculous, it really is. For half the cost of a 1-6 travelcard, and
all day travel across the entire capital, you get a return ticket from the
boundary to Dartford.
If anything, it would be more profitable for TfL to create more unzoned
enclaves, within the existing zonal system. Take Clapham Junction out of the
zones for example. They could make a fortune.
