The fares on the system are the current Heathrow Express fares via
Paddington, as they increase travelling towards Hayes & Harlington. I
understand the idea is for the fares to be set at:

Heathrow Express fare minus Paddington to Ealing Broadway / West
Ealing/ Southall/ Hayes & Harlington fare.


And this is how to encourage the use of public transport and reduce
traffic congestion?!


Indeed.

What about using a travelcard to travel to H&H, and then taking the
bus to Heathrow, and vice versa? Will they try to prevent that - will
they even abolish the bus?
