TfL Ref: 2388-1819

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 9 December 2018 asking for information about staff travel.

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. The questions you asked and our responses are as below:

1. How many people are currently employed by Transport for London? At the end of P6 (15 September) there were 27,177 people employed by TfL. This excludes Crossrail employees.

    

2. How many Transport for London employees currently have a nominee pass? 18,909

    

3. How many employees of London bus operators currently have a nominee pass? 20,796

There is no cost to TfL because the number of journeys made is a tiny proportion of the 13m journeys made every day on TfL-run transport, meaning no additional services need to be operated. All TfL employees and their nominees are expected to act as ambassadors for TfL, helping ensure the security of the system and helping assist our customers where necessary.

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

Sara Thomas
