Under pressure from public transport campaigners, rolling stones will in future gather moss – but only at designated pick-up points in London.
The change of heart comes after new figures released by Transport for London showed the innovative mass transit system had not carried a single passenger in its first year of operation.
Following pressure from transport rights campaigners, TfL admitted its contract with the supplier had “some minor loopholes”.
Operator Rolling Stone (London) had initially objected to TfL’s reforms, saying, “Read the small print. This is literally the opposite of what we agreed to do.”
Despite its lack of passenger numbers, the rolling stone venture is still considered more successful than the London Cable Car.
