London Mayor Sadiq Khan has revealed London is facing a travel crisis. A £1.3 billion funding gap means bus services could be reduced by a fifth and tube services by almost 10% unless the Government steps in with an injection of funds.

Ross Lydall is City Hall Editor of the Evening Standard and explains how commuters could be affected, and how London’s travel network could impact the whole country.
