Full list of all App based operators licences & Any Driver less Operators Applications
Request ID: FOI-1037-2223 Date published: 24 August 2022
You asked
Dear Transport for London,
I require a full list of all App based operators licences issued after the new fee tiers implemented since 2017.
The list should include:
• Their licencing tiers
• Their licencing duration
• Their demonstrations numbers
• If anyone given 5 yearly licence why?
I would also like to know about how many operators have applied for Driverless Operators licencing and at what stage are they now?
In addition may I know if TfL has any future commercial interest in developing this platform for themselves and taking over the PH platforms like buses and tube?
Note: I hope my request will be treated under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and 2014 for initial request for standard fee, and will not be asked to pay £450.

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 28 July 2022 asking for information about App based operators.
Your request has been considered under the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and our information access policy.
Unfortunately we do not hold the information you require.
I require a full list of all App based operators licences issued after the new fee tiers implemented since 2017.
There is no requirement for operators to advise us if they use an App. We therefore do not hold a list of App based operators. Our role is to ensure licensing requirements are met. If these conditions are met we will issue the operator with a licence. For further information, please see:
