London's cable car is reducing its opening times due to low passenger numbers

The IFS cable car flies across the Thames, taking passengers from the Greenwich peninsula, next to the O2, over to Royal Victoria Dock. The journey takes about 10 minutes and primarily serves tourists and cable car enthusiasts, who are a more common breed than you might expect.

TfL has announced that due to a very low number of passengers (an average of only four) using the service in its first hour of operation, the cable car's opening time will be delayed from 7am to 8am.

If you're one of those loyal few early morning users, you may have to find alternative transport for your early morning crossing.

The closing time will remain the same, and the change is expected to come into effect on December 1 alongside the rest of the changes for the winter timetable.
