Transport in London

Public transport in London is expensive. The fare depends on the length of journey. The London Underground or "tube" was the world's first urban underground railway. Buses in London are not as popular as the Tube because of the traffic jams. Most London buses are red "double-deckers". They are one of the most wonderful sights in London. Coaches are long distance buses. Travelling by coach is cheaper than by train. When you are in London you can also take a taxi, which is called a cab. Most London citizens have private cars, so they don't have to use public transport.
