Transport for London has published its review into the trial operation of Demand Responsive Travel in Sutton and Ealing. The trials, which were launched in May and November 2019 respectively, were suspended in March 2020 as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and formally terminated in May 2020. Both schemes initially charged a flat fare of £3.50 which was reduced during the trial. A total of 80,901 journeys were made in Sutton by 5,541 users, while 1,846 people made 16,275 trips in Ealing. In both cases, a significant number of users were Freedom Pass holders - 47% and 31% respectively. The number of journeys that connected with public transport was low, only accounting for 10% of Sutton trips. However, there was no Oyster card or travelcard integration, which would have encouraged this. |
