#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release:

#TfL says the Superloop SL4 has proved successful since launching between Grove Park and Canary Wharf on 7 April 2025, with average weekday journeys reaching 8,300 by March 2026. Between its launch and 31 August 2026, the route recorded 3,428,413 Oyster and contactless journeys. The figure excludes paper tickets, passengers boarding without tapping and other non-validated journeys.

TfL said the SL4 had received 38 commendations, mainly praising driver courtesy, helpfulness, safety and customer service. A small number of customers have suggested extending the route to Bromley North. TfL said it had considered the proposal but found the costs significant and the scheme was not feasible. Any future proposals would involve discussions with the relevant London boroughs before public consultation.

#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release:

TfL received 479 complaints between September 2025 and August 2026 about wheelchair users being unable to access the designated priority space on #buses because it was occupied by buggies, pushchairs, luggage or other obstructions.

#TfL said drivers are required by law to give wheelchair and mobility scooter users priority and ask other passengers to move, with this guidance also covered in driver instructions and passenger information. Complaints are passed to the relevant private bus operator, but TfL does not hold records of individual operator outcomes. Operators investigate cases and remind staff about accessibility. TfL also said equality, diversity and inclusion training is being delivered to all 24,700 London bus drivers over three years, covering #accessibility, ramps and wheelchair priority.

Is a full national rail electric bike ban on the table?

Rail executives are lobbying for it, according to evidence Cycling Electric found.

Network Rail signage in Leeds, perhaps incorrectly, states a full #ebike ban is in effect on all properties, while building a new 400-space parking plot set to be equipped with chargers. Will they be built? Not if trade union pressure wins.

London’s #transport network has become more accessible, with new step-free routes opening at Surrey Quays Overground and Northolt Tube stations.

At Surrey Quays, a new entrance and ticket hall on Lower Road provide step-free access to both platforms via two lifts. The improvements also include an accessible toilet and baby-changing facilities, while a new footbridge and staircase will increase capacity and reduce congestion.

Northolt, on the Central line’s West Ruislip branch, is now the 95th Tube station with step-free access. A new lift and footbridge provide a step-free route from street level to the platform, with manual boarding ramps also available.

More than a third of Tube stations and over half of #London Overground stations are now step-free. All Elizabeth line and DLR stations and tram stops also offer step-free access, while all #TfL buses are wheelchair-accessible.

People are being invited to help shape plans to redevelop Bury Interchange into a modern, accessible transport hub.

#Transport for Greater #Manchester, Bury Council and Greater Manchester Combined Authority are proposing a new interchange building, a reconfigured bus station, upgraded Metrolink platforms and improved walking, wheeling and cycling routes. New public spaces and residential apartments are also planned.

The redevelopment will be delivered in two phases. The first is due to begin this autumn, with a new footbridge linking the tram platform to Union Square and Pyramid Park, alongside Metrolink platform improvements.

The second phase, expected to start in early 2028, will include the new transport hub, public spaces and potential homes. A formal consultation is planned for winter.

Residents, workers and travellers are being asked to complete a survey by 11.59pm on Sunday, 27 September. Drop-in sessions will also be held on 11, 16 and 26 September.

#Volvo #Buses has launched the Volvo BZL DD Electric, a zero-tailpipe-emission double-decker designed for Hong Kong’s public #transport network. Unveiled at the ReThink #HongKong exhibition, the battery-electric bus features MCV bodywork and is the first Volvo BZL Electric double-decker for the city to use a 6x2 tri-axle configuration, supporting high passenger capacity and intensive urban operations.

The bus combines Volvo’s electric chassis technology with safety systems including active safety features and emergency braking. A heavy-duty climate control system is designed for Hong Kong’s tropical conditions, while the fully electric driveline provides quiet operation and helps improve air quality.

Operators can use overnight depot charging or fast charging of up to 250kW, offering flexibility and supporting vehicle availability. Volvo says the platform is designed to meet Hong Kong’s requirements for reliability, safety and passenger comfort.

#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release:

#TfL has disclosed that 41 of the 112,457 currently licensed private hire drivers applied for their licence using a non-UK driving licence. However, TfL said it cannot report on a further 10,424 records without manually checking each one, due to an issue with its reporting system.

TfL said applicants must be at least 21 and have held a full DVLA, Northern Ireland or eligible EU/EEA driving licence for at least three years. The licensing process also considers serious traffic offences, penalty points, repeat motoring convictions and previous disqualifications.

TfL said all licensed drivers must meet its requirements and believes the number of non-UK licences among the unverified records is likely to be very low and broadly proportionate to the reported figure.

#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release:

#TfL has published planning papers and tender specifications for routes W12, W13 and W14, following an FOI request received on 14 August 2026. The documents cover proposed changes considered by the Bus Services Meeting in January 2023 as part of the re-tendering of bus contracts.

For W12, options included retaining the existing Walthamstow–Wanstead route or restructuring it to run to Woodford Bridge, with higher frequencies. W13 could remain unchanged or be extended from Leytonstone to Leyton, Asda, with increased evening, Sunday and Saturday services. W14 could either retain its existing Woodford Bridge–Leyton route or be withdrawn.

The specifications set vehicle, reliability and mileage standards, with contracts planned for seven years from September 2024.

🚴🇮🇪💶 #Transport Minister Darragh O’Brien has launched a new national website showcasing Ireland’s growing greenway network at the National Active #Travel and Greenways Conference in Cork on 10 September 2026.

The website provides a central source of information on greenway routes, facilities, attractions and visitor amenities.

The annual conference brings together local authorities, Transport Infrastructure #Ireland, the National Transport Authority and other stakeholders involved in walking, cycling and greenway projects.

O’Brien said €360 million has been allocated for walking and cycling infrastructure in 2026, highlighting the Government’s commitment to expanding active travel. He said investment would support safer, more sustainable transport options, while collaboration and knowledge-sharing would help deliver high-quality, accessible projects.

Citybus and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to promote simulated driving training for bus captains and enhance road safety.

Under the partnership, Citybus will pilot PolyU’s Intelligent Driving Training and Evaluation System, developed with Smart Traffic Fund support. The system combines Extended Reality (XR), AI-driven analysis and six-degree-of-freedom motion simulation to recreate scenarios including pedestrians crossing suddenly and adverse weather.

The pilot began in July, with selected Citybus bus captains taking part in simulated training. Their performance and responses to emergencies will be recorded and analysed, allowing PolyU to refine the system based on operational needs.

If successful, the partners will explore adapting the platform more closely to bus operations. They hope the findings will inform future training models and support safer public #transport in #HongKong.
