Transport for London Company Profile
Transport for London is provided by Transport for London, a government agency that oversees the operations of the city's bus, subway (London Underground, better known as the Tube), light rail, and tram systems. The agency has brought back a storied feature of the city's transport system -- a new double-decker bus model inspired by the Routemaster bus, which was phased out, except for two heritage routes. The agency, which was founded in 2000, also manages the city's streets (including some 6,000 traffic lights), enforces taxi regulations, and promotes a range of walking and cycling initiatives. Transport for London is controlled by the London Mayor's Office.
