TFL have said no to the balaclava ban on the London Underground
Around 6,000 people have now signed a petition calling for Transport for London to ban passengers wearing balaclavas while using the Tube.
A TfL spokesperson said: "We work hard with the British Transport Police and the Metropolitan Police to tackle crime on our public transport networks and ensure that our customers can travel safely. Tackling robbery is a priority for us. While the level of robbery is low for a mass public transport system, we know that these incidents have a huge impact on our customers who experience them and other customers who witness this. There is a wide range of activity underway to deter, detect and investigate these criminals.
"While we have no current plans to introduce such a blanket ban, we are actively reviewing our tactics to ensure that they are effective in continuing to drive down levels of robbery on public transport and ensuring that our transport network remains a safe environment to work and travel."
