London transport

The big cities such as London have to have the elaborate system of transport, because there are a lot of cars and also many people who have to move from one place to other. When we think about London’s transport, there are more images that cross our minds, for example: London’s black taxis, typical London double-deckers and the London underground, which is one of the oldest subway systems in the world. The public transport network in London is one of the most expensive in the world.
Because London was awarded the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, a total of 7 billion pounds will be spent on refurbishing and expanding the city’s links, mainly on the London Underground. By 2013, a new service called Crossrail is due to open. A Cross River Tram is also in planning. It will depart from the southern suburbs, cross the River Thames, go through the City London, and continue its journey to the northern suburbs. It is said that it will be the world’s longest tram route.
Although London transport has a very high level, they want to still improve it.
