"London is growing, with an estimated 10 million people expected to live here
by the early 2030s"

10 million already live in commuting distance. Presumably they mean within
the london boroughs

Isn't "commuting distance" usually reckoned to be an hour from a London
Rail Terminus? Although 10m is far too small for that.

Don't know,

The 1hr is true.

but isn't there something like 20-25 million in london and the home
counties?

8.5m in Great London today, so the extra 1.5m will be easily mopped up
by the boroughs which encircle it.
