Thank you for your request of 18th May 2023 asking for bus CCTV footage.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy.
I am afraid that TfL does not hold the requested information. London's bus services are operated by private bus companies on behalf of TfL. CCTV on London buses is the responsibility of the company that runs that particular service or route, and any recorded footage is held by those companies rather than TfL. If you require access to CCTV footage from a bus you should contact the company who operates that particular route. A list of all routes and the companies that operate them can be found on our website here:
As you can see, the 417 bus is run by Arriva London South Ltd. They can be contacted via their website here: https://www.arrivabus.co.uk/our-services/arriva-london; by phone on 020 8271 010; or by post at 16 Watsons Road, London, N22 7TZ.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.
Yours sincerely,
David Wells FOI Case Officer FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
