Might work fine for the tube as almost every station is gated, perhaps you
would like to put forward ideas on how a point-to-point bus fares structure
in London can be efficiently run with proper revenue protection.

A point-to-point bus fare system would really put me off bus use. One of
the things I really liked about buses in London when I arrived here,
versus back home, was an easy flat fare structure. (That and about
twenty times the frequency...)
