Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 14 December 2022, asking for information about London Overground line naming programme.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy. The London Overground Line naming project is a Mayoral commitment which aims to give each individual London Overground route its own name and identity. We have begun to explore this programme and will work collaboratively with City Hall. Work on this project is in the first stages of development which includes determining the budget required and potential timescales for delivery. As you will know, we have been under unprecedented funding pressure since the start of the pandemic and there have been delays in our ability to commit budget to new projects. Therefore, unfortunately we do not hold the information you have requested.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.
Yours sincerely
Eva Hextall FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
