Font requests

As the font associated with London's transport network for nearly a century, we are keen to ensure the Johnston family of fonts is used in a consistent and controlled way.

The Johnston typeface has undergone many changes since it was developed for London Underground by Edward Johnston in 1916.

TfL owns design and copyrights for all cuts of the Johnston 100 font. Application for a copy is only available by completing one of the licence request forms.

Johnston 100 was developed for use across our transport network. The Johnston Delf Smith typeface was developed for use on some historical signs.
