Travelcard

A travelcard is a ticket for public transport in London, which allows the holder to use the following modes of transport within the zones on the ticket:

• buses
• underground trains (the Tube)
• overground trains
• light rail services
• trams

Valid cards also entitle the holder to discounts on river services.

Travelcards are valid for one or more of the six zones. Zones are arranged concentrically, with Zone 1 including the central area, and Zone 6 including outlying towns such as Kingston, Uxbridge, Loughton and Upminster.

A Travelcard lasting seven days or more must usually be accompanied by a photocard bearing a photograph of the person who can use the card. The travelcard itself can either be printed onto a card with a magnetic strip, or loaded onto an Oyster Card.
