Traffic & Travelling Travelling byunderground

bus,

London’s underground serves most of the city and links it with its suburbs. Frequent and reliable it runs 20 hours a day with trains every few minutes on most lines. The famous Journey Planner map gives each line a colour making it easy to plan your trip. You’ll find the map is on every platform, and in this leaflet, too.

Fares are based on a zonal system, details are in all ticket offices and in free leaflets from Travel Information Centres. Buy your ticket from the machine or booking office and put it into the automatic gate, pick it up from the top and walk through. If you have luggage or a pushchair, station staff will assist you.

You must have a valid ticket for your whole journey before you travel. If you don’t, from April 1994 you will be liable to pay a Penalty Fare of £ 10. The London Underground system is one of the safest metros in the world but it makes sense to protect your personal belongings at all times.

Video linked TVs assist in ensuring your safety when you’re with us, and at many stations you can use platform "Help Points" to ask for help or information. On escalators always stand on the right and never run, keep children’s feet and fingers away from the sides. Never hold back the train doors when they are closing.

The Underground’s Customer Charter promises you a safe, speedy journey, and a refund of your fare if your train is more than 15 minutes late.

Travelling

by plane

International connections are good. Second class carriages aren’t always clean. You can fly to all the important cities abroad. You have space to move. It is nice to be above the clouds. During take off and landing your ears may pop. Unless you want to miss your connections you should be very time- conscious. You can be relaxed because you can see the countryside. The quickest way of transport. Usually punctual. Carriages are likely to be crowded and noisy. You can see everything underneath. Not terribly expensive. Cheap fare are offered to pensioners, students. Some people get airsick. It could be tiring and exhausting for nervous fliers. It is extremely comfortable. Seat in a first class compartment is too expensive. Air fares are much more expensive.

10. Complete the table.

There is no doubt that air travel is more ___________________ than any other form of modern transport, but although it would be more __________________ to travel by train I often fly because I find it more ________________________.Strangely enough, they say it is the _______________________ form of travel. Apparently, it is more _______________________ to drive or cross the road so I don’t feel as __________________________ as I used to when I travel by air. I usually ask for a window seat because you get a __________________ view, Although it can be quite _____________________ because there is less space Others feel less _____________________ next to the aisle because they find it _________________ to forget how high up they are.
