For students, having a convenient and affordable transport system can help tremendously to ensure they are well in time for class, not too exhausted, and safe. Due to the excellent transportation system in London, moving from one place to another is very convenient. Have a look at these transport options available for students:
Bus
Unlike other transportation systems in the world, buses here do not accept any kind of cash payment. You must have an oyster card to travel by bus from Tower Hamlets to other parts of the city. A travel card would also do. A debit or credit card would work best; mobile payment is the saviour.
Tube
On Fridays and Saturdays, the Night Tube operates. It runs the entire length of the Victoria and Jubilee lines. Most Central, Northern, and Piccadilly lines serve it. Many buses also run around the clock or late at night. The fares for this range anywhere between £8.10-£13.90
Walking
Walking can be a great way to get to your university and other places. Students can explore new places, restaurants, and more on their commute. Plus, it’s always the healthier choice!
Cycling
Cycling is by far the most cost-effective and convenient mode of transport for students. Most student accommodations and universities offer storage spaces for cycles as well.
Taxis
London also has a great taxi transport system in place. However, students prefer not to travel by taxi, which would be costlier than travelling by train or bus.
