TfL is celebrating its 25th anniversary by airing birthday announcements from 25 young fans of public transport, selected from hundreds of applicants. The announcements will play at 50 Tube and rail stations until 20:00 BST, featuring messages of support for TfL. Winners described their favorite modes of transport in a creative competition, highlighting the significance of public transport in their lives. Many entrants were disabled, expressing how transport enabled them to explore London and connect with family and friends. The event showcases enthusiasm for TfL's service and future vision.
The broadcasts, that wish TfL a "happy birthday" and remind people to "mind the gap", will play out at 50 Tube and rail stations on the hour until 20:00 BST.
Entrants were asked to pick out their favourite mode of TfL transport such as buses, DLR or the London Underground, and describe in 100 words what it meant to them.
Many of the young people who shared their love of transport were disabled and spoke about how public transport allowed them to explore more of the capital and see their family and friends.
Seb Dance stated that the young Londoners showed passion and enthusiasm for TfL and that the super fans competition was a fitting way to mark TfL's 25th anniversary.
