Is Stratford Zone 2 or Zone 3?
This is what the new Tube map looks like C ommuters in east London are in line to save hundreds of pounds this year thanks to the redrawing of the Zone 3 fare boundary. The latest version of the Tube map, unveiled this week, shows Stratford and nine other stations in a newly-created “Zone 2/3” region. Previously stations in multiple zones were simply shown along the border.
Those heading in to central London from any of the stations will now only be charged the cost of travelling from Zone 2.But prices for passengers travelling out of London will not be changed, meaning commuters will always be charged the cheaper fare – as if they were still travelling from Zone 3. For instance, anyone travelling from Stratford to Westminster will now be charged for a Zone 2 to Zone 1 journey, but commuters heading from Stratford to Romford will still be charged for a Zone 3 to Zone 6 journey.
Stratford (Tube, Overground, TfL Rail and National Rail), Stratford High Street (DLR), Stratford International (DLR and National Rail), West Ham, Canning Town, Star Lane and Abbey Road are all now officially in “Zone 2/3”. Bromley-by-Bow, Pudding Mill Lane and North Greenwich were already on the boundary between the two zones.
- New map: Stratford and six other stations are in “Zone 2/3” now TfL / TFL Overall, the cost of journeys across the National Rail network has increased by 1.1 per cent while TfL fares – including Tubes and London Overground services – are 1 per cent higher from this week.
- But the new zone boundary means those who live in Newham and work in Zones 1 or 2 will see a real-terms saving compared with last year – a 2016 zone 1 to 2 travelcard costs £124.50, while a Zone 1 to 3 travelcard last year cost £144.80.
The way it used to be: The old Tube map with Stratford and its surrounding stations in Zone 3 TfL / TFL A TfL spokesman said the new Tube map was intended to “recognise the shifting economic map of London towards east London”. “Re-zoning these stations will benefit more than 100,000 people per week and will ensure customers travelling to Stratford from central London will never require a ticket valid in Zone 3,” he added.
Mayor of Newham Sir Robin Wales said: “We’ve been campaigning for this for some time. The truth is London’s moving eastwards and it’s sensible to reduce the cost of travel. “It’s going to encourage people to come to Stratford, West Ham and Canning Town, which will be great.” The news was well received on Twitter, where many said their season tickets had reduced in cost.
Moving Stratford to Zone 2 will not entice me to visit this dystopian future nightmare of a place any more than is already necessary. — Nick Reading (@NickReading1) Katy (@itskatywithay) said: “New zone change at Stratford means my travelcard is about £20 cheaper per month.” And Liam (@DjLDot) wrote: “Woooh they changed Stratford’s zoning.
- Cheaper travel.
- Ish.” bless stratford and it’s new zone 2-ness and the ability to get to central in 15 minutes — Ellie Burns (@ElliesFT) Miss White (@mzwhite_) added: “Stratford now zone 2.
- How happy am I for cheaper travel.” But not everyone was impressed.
- Today Stratford has become Zone 2.
- Wouldn’t it be better if the further you had the commute the cheaper it was.
— Mark Machado (@MarkMachado) JohnnyFox (@johnnyfoxlondon) suggested all DLR stations should have been moved into zone 2. “Discriminatory,” he said. “If Stratford E20 is Zone 2 all Docklands should be also.” And Mit Hjerteslag Ange (@Blick_Oyinbo) claimed it was “another gentrification move by @MayorofLondon to attract new rich residents while driving out the poor”.
Is Stratford London Zone 2?
2. Re: Is stratford underground in zone 2/3? 5 years ago The daily cap applies to all travels in a day, and as long as one touches in and out correctly throughout for all journeys the system will calculate the lowest fare for all trips taken. Since Stratford is in zones 2 and 3, as long as you don’t travel into zone 3 on any other transport except bus then the daily cap will be for zones 1 and 2.

Where are the best places to live in Zone 2 ? Many places within Zone 2 are widely regarded as Central London though they are often leafier and village-like. For those wanting to get a little more property for their money whilst still being close to the action, Zone 2 might be the perfect place to buy a home.

What are Zone 2 areas?
Zoning – Hazardous areas are defined in DSEAR as “any place in which an explosive atmosphere may occur in quantities such as to require special precautions to protect the safety of workers”. In this context, ‘special precautions’ is best taken as relating to the construction, installation and use of apparatus, as given in BS EN 60079 -10 1,
Area classification is a method of analysing and classifying the environment where explosive gas atmospheres may occur. The main purpose is to facilitate the proper selection and installation of apparatus to be used safely in that environment, taking into account the properties of the flammable materials that will be present.
DSEAR specifically extends the original scope of this analysis, to take into account non-electrical sources of ignition, and mobile equipment that creates an ignition risk. Hazardous areas are classified into zones based on an assessment of the frequency of the occurrence and duration of an explosive gas atmosphere, as follows:
Zone 0: An area in which an explosive gas atmosphere is present continuously or for long periods; Zone 1: An area in which an explosive gas atmosphere is likely to occur in normal operation; Zone 2: An area in which an explosive gas atmosphere is not likely to occur in normal operation and, if it occurs, will only exist for a short time.
Various sources have tried to place time limits on to these zones, but none have been officially adopted. The most common values used are:
Zone 0: Explosive atmosphere for more than 1000h/yr Zone 1: Explosive atmosphere for more than 10, but less than 1000 h/yr Zone 2: Explosive atmosphere for less than 10h/yr, but still sufficiently likely as to require controls over ignition sources.
Where people wish to quantify the zone definitions, these values are the most appropriate, but for the majority of situations a purely qualitative approach is adequate. When the hazardous areas of a plant have been classified, the remainder will be defined as non-hazardous, sometimes referred to as ‘safe areas’.
- The zone definitions take no account of the consequences of a release.
- If this aspect is important, it may be addressed by upgrading the specification of equipment or controls over activities allowed within the zone.
- The alternative of specifying the extent of zones more conservatively is not generally recommended, as it leads to more difficulties with equipment selection, and illogicalities in respect of control over health effects from vapours assumed to be present.
Where occupiers choose to define extensive areas as Zone 1, the practical consequences could usefully be discussed during site inspection.

Stratford is a town in East London, England, within the London Borough of Newham, Part of the Lower Lea Valley, Stratford is situated 6 miles (9.7 km) east-northeast of Charing Cross, and includes the localities of Maryland and East Village, Historically, part of the parish of West Ham, which formed an ancient parish in the hundred of Becontree in Essex,
Following reform of local government in London in 1965, the parish and borough of West Ham was abolished, becoming part of the borough of Newham in the newly formed Greater London. Stratford grew rapidly in the 19th century following the introduction of the railway to the area in 1839, forming part of the conurbation of London, similar to much of south-west Essex.
The late 20th century was a period of severe economic decline in the area, eventually reversed by ongoing regeneration associated with the 2012 Summer Olympics, for which Stratford’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, part of the large, multi-purpose Stratford City development, was the principal venue.
Is Greenwich Zone 2 or 3?
1. Re: North Greenwich Station is zone 2 or zone 3?? 6 years ago North Greenwich station is on the boundary of zone 2&3 so if you are coming from London it is in zone 2 so a zones 1-2 travelcard will suffice. Coming from the other direction the station will still be in zone 2 as the jubilee line stays in zone 2 on the way from Stratford.
