Thank you for your email received by us on 12 January 2018 asking for information about the cost of TfL cleaning services.

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 some of the information you require. You asked:

“Looking at previous FoI requests, I can see that TfL employs cleaning teams across the TfL network (including the tube, overground, DLR, some trains etc)
What is the annual cost of cleaning teams, including staff wages and associated costs, equipment, materials and other cleaning costs?
Please provide the information in £
Please provide the annual cost for the last 5 years”

Station cleaning is carried out by third party providers and we do not employ cleaners directly.
