#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release: #TfL has revealed 91,587 fare evasion fines issued across its network from Nov 2023 to Oct 2025. Annual totals were 2023: 5,875; 2024: 45,332; 2025: 40,380. The Elizabeth line recorded the most fines with 30,825, followed by the #Underground at 25,892, Overground 24,596, and DLR 8,054. TfL said fare evasion drains revenue, fuels staff abuse, and is linked to wider criminality. Over 500 officers patrol the network, issuing £100 fines or prosecuting serious cases up to £1,000 plus costs. Figures are from live management data and may change. https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/transparency/freedom-of-information/foi-request-detail?referenceId=FOI-3548-2526

#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release: Customer complaints about graffiti on the London #Underground rose sharply in 2025, particularly on the Central and Bakerloo lines. FOI data shows 364 complaints last year, compared with 18 in 2024 and 2 in 2022, though records before November 2022 are incomplete. Complaints are recorded under “Graffiti/Vandalism/Litter,” so figures may include other incidents. #TfL said graffiti causes damage, affects passenger safety, and requires extensive removal. A dedicated programme with British Transport Police support has been implemented to tackle vandalism, remove tags, and prevent repeat offences, with thousands of graffiti marks removed weekly. https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/transparency/freedom-of-information/foi-request-detail?referenceId=FOI-3858-2526
