TfL Go adds real-time line alerts and improved train info in latest update

And conveniently, TfL Go is a useful way to plan cycling journeys that utilise these cycleways as we prioritise our routes to use them as much as possible 🚲

The truth is, it's not that unusual to encounter a disruption when travelling by public transport in London (or anywhere I suppose!), and this can be quite painful. If you have to open an app or website to check this each time you travel, it just adds to the frustration - what if you forget?

Transport for London has upgraded its free TfL Go travel smartphone app with additional information about bus services across London.

Until this week, TfL Go only let you access bus arrival info if you were near the stop. We realised this was limiting people, so now you can move the map to access arrivals for any stop in London, and on iOS you can also see the route overlaid on the map (Android coming soon). Update now! 😃

Last week’s Tube & DLR strikes gave us an opportunity to use our relatively new Major disruption notifications feature in TfL Go to help Londoners know about the strike and communicate the changing impacts in advance. I’d love to hear from anyone who received these - how was your experience?

Great to see the cycle route option on TfL Go now shows users what percentage of their journey will be on a Cycleway, and where those sections are located.

We’ve also integrated elevation data to be able to show how and where a route climbs and descends.

We’ve just introduced a refreshed design for cycle journeys in TfL Go, including full support for crossing the Thames on the brand new and free Silvertown Cycle Shuttle service from day one on both Android and iOS.

Try it out, and use the built in feedback button to tell us what you think 😃

When travelling by public transport, it's really important to be able to find out whether there are any disruptions that affect my journey. Today we've updated the Tube & Rail Status page on tfl.gov.uk/status-updates with a few changes to make this task easier.

As of today, TfL's Oyster and contactless app is no longer available to use - if you want to continue managing your Oyster and contactless cards (topping up, buying travel cards, viewing journey history etc), you'll need to switch to the TfL Go app which added this capability in January.

Yup, it's a big month for our team - we've been working on this for a while now and really excited to make it possible for people to plan their travel, and manage their payments all in the same app 😃

Psst. TfL contactless website is finally working again.

We've just updated ESUB (Electronic Service Update Boards) screens with the new London Overground lines - spot it in your local station 😃
