The bus network in London is one of the largest and most comprehensive urban transport systems in the world.

Note that traffic congestion is common, especially during the peak hours at 7:30-9:30am, 12-2pm and 4:30-6:30pm on weekdays, or in London shopping areas during weekends.

Taxi

In most of the United Kingdom hackney carriage operators use conventional four-door saloon cars, but London use specially-designed hackney carriages manufactured by a small number of companies. These vehicles allow up to 5 passengers in the back. Luggage is usually carried in the passenger compartment, but may be carried in the front next to the driver-there is no front passenger seat, although a door has replaced the original open side.
