TfL has said that off-peak levels of travel have now reached pre-pandemic level, and on some Saturdays use of the Underground has exceeded 2019 levels. On 29th April and 17th June numbers were at 104% of pre-pandemic levels, and on Saturday 1st July, the day of the Pride Parade, 6.9 million Underground entries and exits were recorded, making it the busiest Saturday on the network since December 2019.
On weekdays, tube and bus use is in excess of 80% of pre-pandemic levels, whilst the London Overground is closer to 100%. This does have implications for TfL's finances as there is less income from commuters buying season tickets for peak travel.
