London commute is going to be very different, transport operator says

London's commute will be very different when people start to go back to work as demand on buses and the underground railway will be reduced by 85%, the city transport operator said.
"The national requirement to maintain 2m social distancing wherever possible means that TfL will only be able to carry around 13-15 percent of the normal number of passengers on the Tube and bus networks even when 100% of services are operating once again over time," Transport for London said.
"Challenge is far greater than the 2012 Olympic Games, with the need to reduce pre-COVID demand on buses and Tube by over 85 percent," it said.
