In February, TfL announced that it had prosecuted 19,614 people last year for fare dodging across all its modes of transport, up 56 per cent on 2022.

The scale of fare evasion is also soaring, with Tube station staff alerting enforcement teams to more than 756,000 cases last year – up 51 per cent on the previous year.
