Follow-up to FOI-4717-2324: thank you for the announcement files that I requested. I appreciate you giving me access to them. Additionally as a final request, I would like access to all the Class 710 London Overground announcements, preferably the Gospel Oak -Barking Riverside, again for personal use.

We answered

TfL Ref: FOI-4813-2324

Thank you for your request of 28th March 2024 asking for London Overground announcements.
 
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. 

As explained in the response below to case reference FOI-4717-2324, all of the audio announcements across the TfL network that we are currently able to provide access to are already accessible via the site to which you have been given access. That response also explained that we intend to update these files on a six monthly basis and so any newer recordings will be uploaded as part of this pre-determined schedule, rather than in response to specific future FOI requests. This is to ensure our resources can be managed effectively. Therefore, if you are aware of newer recordings that have been created that are not yet uploaded, we would appreciate your patience with this as requests for these recordings are refused under section 22 of the FOI Act on the basis that there is a pre-existing intention to publish these in accordance with our publication schedule. To confirm, these updates are expected to occur around January and July of each year.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely,

David Wells
FOI Case Officer
FOI Case Management Team
General Counsel
Transport for London
