TfL Ref: 1369-1920

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 7 August 2019 asking for information about the Woolwich Ferry. I apologise for the delay in replying.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. I can confirm that we hold the information you require. You asked:

1. I wish to know the full cost of buying the new Woolwich Ferry boats?

    

    

   The total of buying the new ferries was 22,660,000 Euros (11,330,000 Euros per vessel).

    

    

2. If possible, can you let me know any maintenance or repair costs associated with the new boats since they have been in place?

The current maintenance / repairs cost to TfL is zero as both vessels and the infrastructure are within their warranty period.

3. From 1st November 2017 to 7th August 2019, can you please list every day include whether on that day the Woolwich ferry ran a 'full service' , a partial service (provide details if possible), or no service?

Please find attached the availability analysis reports supplied to us by our Woolwich Ferry operator, Briggs Marine. This is the only information we hold and the only format we hold it in.

We do not hold the data for November – February 2018/19 as the service was suspended from November 2018 to end of January 2019 whilst the new vessels were delivered and were under trial, therefore there was no service for performance to be measured against.

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

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.

Yours sincerely
