You asked

Dear Crossrail Limited, I would like to receive copies of all of the current (as completed) Central Section track/signalling diagrams, as well as route maps/information - which are usually available to crew learning the routes, which show speed limits, gradients, routings at signals - if such things exist. It would be appreciated if these could be supplied in a .zip format, as it would reduce the eventual file size! Thank you greatly in advance!

We answered

Our ref: FOI-0103-2021/GH

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 22 April 2020 asking for Crossrail Track/Signalling diagrams.

Your request has been considered under the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and our information access policy. I can confirm that we do hold the information you require.

Please find attached the diagrams as requested. Please note that in accordance with TfL’s obligations under Data Protection legislation some personal data has been removed, as required by section 40(2) of the FOI Act. This is because disclosure of this personal data would be a breach of the legislation, specifically the first principle which requires all processing of personal data to be fair and lawful. It would not be fair to disclose this personal information when the individuals have no expectation it would be disclosed and TfL has not satisfied one of the conditions which would make the processing ‘fair’.

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for some reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Please note, the Government has announced a series of measures to tackle the coronavirus. It is essential for London, that we continue to provide a safe transport network for essential journeys.

In current circumstances, we are not able to answer FOI requests readily and we ask that you please do not make a request to us at present.

Answering FOI requests will require the use of limited resources and the attention of staff who could be supporting other essential activity. In any event, please note that our response time will be affected by the current situation.

If you are not satisfied with this response please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely

Graham Hurt
