TRANSPORT FOR LONDON

Transport for London (TfL) is the integrated body responsible for the capital's transport system. Its role is to implement the Mayor's Transport Strategy for London and manage the transport services across the capital for which the Mayor has responsibility.

TfL is accountable for both the planning and delivery of transport facilities, which enables it to take a truly integrated approach to how people, goods and services move around London.

TfL is directed by a management board whose Members are chosen for their understanding of transport matters and appointed by Ken Livingstone, Mayor of London, who chairs the TfL Board.

What does TfL do?
TfL manages London's buses, the Underground, the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) and London Trams. It also runs London River Services, Victoria Coach Station and London's Transport Museum.

TfL also manages a 580km network of main roads, all of London's 4,600 traffic lights and regulates taxi's and the private hire trade.

To ensure greater accessibility, TfL co-ordinates schemes for transport users with mobility impairments as well as running the Dial-a-Ride scheme.

Considerable work is being undertaken to improve conditions for walkers, cyclists, drivers and freight and to implement proposals for reducing congestion on London's streets.
