Government Support Package

On 1 November 2020, TfL announced that an extraordinary funding and financing support package (the "H2 Funding Package") had been agreed between TfL and the Department for Transport ("DfT") to contribute towards TfL's forecast funding shortfall, arising from the loss of passenger revenue as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. The H2 Funding Package originally provided support for the period from 18 October 2020 to 31 March 2021 and was subsequently extended to 18 May 2021 and 28 May 2021.

With the H2 Funding Package expiring on 28 May 2021 TfL continues constructive discussions with the DfT with regards to TfL’s need for further financial support and will make any further announcements in due course.
