From May this year weekly travelcards covering only zones only 1 and 2
or just 1 or 2 were exempt from requiring a photocard. But this
exemption was dropped this month. Why? Why was this exemption
introduced in the first place? Is anything to do with congestion
charging or to encourage more people to use public transport?


Nothing to do with Congestion Charging.

I believe its an experiment by London Underground (following on from
the experiment in the Stamford Brook/Turnham Green area on the
District).


Rob.


What experiment is that ?


Trial of 7 Day Travelcards not needing a photocard...
