Mayor funds 50 more police officers for outer London train stations

The Mayor of London today delivered on another key manifesto pledge when he announced an additional 50 British Transport Police officers to patrol trains and stations in outer London.

Transport for London (TfL) will be investing more than £6m during the next two years to fund the extra officers on non-TfL services as part of the Mayor’s commitment to clamp down on low-level crime and disorder at outer London rail stations.
