Thames Clippers is the leading provider of commuter p***enger services on the River Thames, operating fast modern boats over the key central stretch of the river between Central London at Savoy Pier, through Canary Wharf and on to Greenwich and now beyond to Woolwich.
Thames Clippers was founded in 1999 by Sean Collins (MD) and Alan Woods (Chairman), who have spent their careers working on the River Thames and who saw the opportunity to build a professionally run high-speed p***enger ferry service. The Company started with a single vessel carrying less than 1,500 p***engers a week, but now owns a fleet of seven modern vessels carrying well in excess of 20,000 p***engers per week.
Thames Clippers has a grant to provide the only commuter service in Central London and operates a fleet of fast high-quality vessels. The service is also integrated into the TfL pricing system, so holders of Travelcards are eligible for discounts, and the river has become part of an 'integrated modal transport network' with improved signage on bus and Tube maps and stations, for onward interconnections.
