Bus and Underground fares in London are to increase by an overall figure
of 6% from the New Year, London Mayor Boris Johnson has announced.
Some fares will be cut, including a new off-peak rate aimed at encouraging
people to travel after 0930.
Mr Johnson blamed the rises on the "largesse" of previous mayor, Labour's
Ken Livingstone, accusing him of creating an £80m financial hole.

suggests Ken would have made similar changes...

There have been a number of discussions here in the past about PAYG capping
rules, especially concerning peak/off-peak, or standard/discount. The terms
used seem to be changing, with an off peak period 0930-1600, so I'm
presuming within the existing 'standard' period of 0700-1900 peak PAYG
fares will be charged between 0700-0900, and 1600-1900.

Might this also be part of the process of aligning Tube and NR charging
policies, with a view to next years NR PAYG rollout in the zones?
