TfL Ref: FOI-2953-2425
Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 13th December 2024 asking for information about London buses.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy.
Please note, the Freedom of Information Act covers the provision of specific, recorded information only. It does not cover the provision of opinion, explanation or more general questions such as whether TfL is “aware of” different bus models in use in different cities across the world. With this in mind, your questions 1 and 2 do not fall within the scope of the Freedom of Information Act.
In regard to Questions 3 and 4, currently TfL does not have plans to introduce self-driving/autonomous buses to the fleet, nor do we have plans to reinstate all-door open boarding.
If this is not the information you are looking for 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,
David Wells
