Fare zones 7–9 are ancillary zones of the Travelcard and Oyster card fare charging scheme managed by Transport for London; Fare zones B, C, G and W have fares set by National Rail train operating companies. The fare zones are outside Greater London, typically more than 16 miles (26 km) from Piccadilly Circus.
Several stations outside the Greater London boundary are in zones 4, 5 and 6.[note a]
Scope
The zones extend in segments from the outer boundary of Greater London to the north and west into Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire and to the east into Essex. Unlike zones 1-6, they do not form a complete ring around London.1 They include eight London Underground stations on the Metropolitan Line, and the London Overground stations that are outside zones 1-6.
Since 2 January 2010, a number of stations in Thurrock have formed a new zone G (for Grays); Watford Junction forms a single-station zone W (for Watford).2 In January 2013 the stations of Brentwood and Broxbourne were added to the Oyster card charging mechanism as zone B, and Shenfield was added as zone C.
