How long will these restrictions apply? TfL will keep this policy under review and continue to work with Government regarding how long restrictions are needed. How many Freedom Pass users traveling in the morning peak? What are you advising affected customers who must travel during morning peak?
If customers have no option other than to use public transport during the morning peak, TfL recommends that they travel using pay as you go with a contactless card or mobile device, or an Oyster card. What other concession changes will you be implementing? All our other adult concessions will remain in place. Is TfL preventing those customers from traveling? Many supermarkets no longer offer special shopping hours, however do prioritise disabled, elderly and vunerable customers whenever there is a queue outside thier shops and will continue to prioritise NHS workers and carers on production of suitable ID.
Some supermarkets have returned to normal opening hours. We advise you to check your preferred supermarket website for their most up to date information.

They will be able to travel all day on weekends and Bank Holidays. They are in place to help reduce the risk of crowding at the busiest times. How have the needs of older people, which include disabled older people, those on lower income, those from BAME backgrounds, been considered in the decision-making process? TfL has carried out an Equality Impact Assessment as part of these changes. Londoners on low incomes tend to be women, older and disabled people, and those not in work.
However, Londoners over 60 and on low income are amongst those most vulnerable to infection and most at risk of inadvertently passing on the virus. A Disabled Freedom Pass is valid all day every day.
London Councils fund all the journeys that are made at those times. If you are travelling on any kind of train, you will need to touch in at the beginning of your journey and touch out at the end. Look for the yellow card readers on the station platforms to do this. This will qualify from to on weekdays and at any time at weekends or public holidays.
