Figure 17 in "Travel in London 2025" Report

  • Reference: 2025/4310
  • Question by: Keith Prince
  • Meeting date: 18 December 2025
Figure 17 found on page 30 of TfL's "Travel in London 2025" Report presented to the TfL Board on 3 December 2025, is a graph that claims to show "People killed or seriously on or by a London bus, from 2010 to 2030". Does this graph include the 31 incidents over the period of people "killed on or by a bus" that fail to meet STATS19 Criteria? If not, do you agree that this graph could be perceived as mis-leading and will you ask TfL to revisit its approach?

Data Annex - Bus Safety Incident Data for "People killed in or by a bus" 2010-2024

  • Question by: Keith Prince
  • Meeting date: 18 December 2025
When will I receive the data requested in Question 2025/3723? I understand that the data requested is long-published STATS19 data and I made my original request over a month ago, so what is the reason for the delay?

Formal Apology to Bus Safety Victims TfL excludes from its “People Killed on or by a bus” Data Reporting

  • Reference: 2025/4304
  • Question by: Keith Prince
  • Meeting date: 18 December 2025
Your response to Question 2025/3721 did not answer the question I asked. I am not asking whether "fatalities are excluded from the data", but about the fact that, based on your responses to Question 2019/19600, Question 2025/0970 and Question 2025/1470, you've already admitted that TfL does exclude specific Bus-related fatalities from the data it uses to, (a) design bus safety policies, (b) measure Bus Safety Performance against Vision Zero targets, and (c) determine management bonuses that excludes around 20% of bus deaths, such as those that occur in private bus stations. Accordingly, will you apologise to the families of 16...

Excluding Victims from TfL's Annual Road Safety Reporting

  • Reference: 2025/4303
  • Question by: Keith Prince
  • Meeting date: 18 December 2025
In your response to Question 2025/3720, you stated, "Transport for London (TfL) does not exclude data on people fatally injured in incidents involving buses." However, your responses to Question 2025/0970, Question 2025/1470 and Question 2019/19600 state that (a) "Fatalities which do not meet the STATS19 criteria are not included in the STATS19 data and are therefore not included in TfL’s road safety targets and baseline", (b) "the national STATS19 dataset is the underpinning data source for all road safety policy and from which Transport for London (TfL) built its evidence base for the Bus Safety Standard (BSS)", and (c) "Road...

Further to your helpful response to Question 2025/3719, in the downloadable "Expenditures over £250" data made available on TfL's website, for the latest period (period 8 2026) I note a payment of £3000.00 was made to "BRAKE" on 16 October by TfL Corporate for "Staff Training".
