The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, said: “I’m delighted that our world-class new Elizabeth line will be opening to passengers later this month, helping build a
better London - one which is safer, fairer, greener and more prosperous city for all Londoners.
“This is the most significant addition to our transport network in decades, and will revolutionise travel across the capital and the south east – as well as delivering a £42 billion boost to the whole UK economy and hundreds of thousands of new homes and jobs.
“Green public transport is the future and the opening of the Elizabeth line is a landmark moment for our capital and our whole country, particularly in this special Platinum Jubilee year. I’m so proud of this new line and can’t wait for millions of passengers to start riding on the Elizabeth line from 24 May.” Photo by DAVID HOLT, Wikimedia commons.
