You asked

Please provide me with the speed limits set in each bus station. I have seen https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/maximum_posted_speed_limit_at_tf#incoming-456880 But I understand that was not in your jurisdiction because it is private bus company. My FOI is on bus stations operate by London Buses/TfL in your jurisdiction.

Our ref: FOI-0507-1920/GH

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 18 May 2019 asking for information about speed limits bus stations.

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.

The table below shows the bus stations we control and supervise on our network along with the speed limits.

Locations can vary significantly in nature such as at Vauxhall where there is linear layout with open highways on either side. All sites are risk assessed to help us set appropriate limits for the type of bus operation taking place. Some less busy or shared space locations such as Shepherds Bush are considered to be bus stands.
