Request ID: FOI-1854-2223 Date published: 23 November 2022
You asked
Hi, I'm looking for a data download of all of London's Red Routes currently maintained by TFL. It would be helpful if you could provide: the coordinates for each data row in lat/long, and other related data fields.
The preferred format would be either .txt, .csv, or .xlsx
This is a very similar request to: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/londons_red_routes
However, the data download provided then was in 2017, considering that it is now 2022 it would be greatly appreciated to have a more recent and up to date version of this data.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Kind Regards,
