Request ID: FOI-0027-1920 Date published: 24 April 2019
You asked
Could I please request any records of phone calls, meetings, emails and any other type of relevant communication between TfL and the company Citymapper, which trades as Citymapper Limited. The timeline I would be looking for would be between 5 March 2019 to 2 April 2019.
I am specifically looking for records of conversations about:
- The Citymapper Pass, though it may not be described in emails with that precise phrase.
- Any discussions relating to competition between Citymapper and TfL.
- Any discussions relating to pricing of the Citymapper pass.
- TfL's reaction to the concept of the Citymapper pass.
- Any discussion around Citymapper's private hire taxi service.
The executives from Citymapper who may have been involved in conversations with TfL might be Azmat Yusuf, and Omid Ashtari. However there may be other Citymapper employees involved in these conversations.
