Request ID: FOI-2089-2324 Date published: 06 October 2023
You asked
Under the Freedom of Information Act I would like to please request the following information:
As part of a promotional event, Bond Street station has been temporarily rebranded as 'Burberry Street'.
This has included the placing of the name 'Burberry Street' in London Underground typeface on roundels and on route mapping illustrations in prominent locations at the station.
If one was undertaken, I would like to request the contents of the equality impact assessment completed in relation to the use of the name 'Burberry Street'.
If an equality impact assessment was not undertaken on this decision, I would like to request the minutes of any meetings that TfL was present in where potential accessibility or equalities issues were discussed in relation to the rebranding.
