Dear Mr Bridle

Thank you for your email received by Transport for London (TfL) on 11th
August 2009. You asked for information information on TfL's total budget
for CCTV across the London Bus Network

Your request has been considered under the requirements of the Freedom of
Information Act and I can confirm that TfL does hold the information you
require. Please find this below:

We do not have a separate budget for CCTV alone. CCTV forms part of the
specification for the entire bus, thus the initial cost and on-going
maintenance is included within the overall price for individual bus route
contracts.

The initial cost to design, supply and retro-fit the bus network with CCTV
was £3,500 per vehicle for around 8,000 buses when full scale
installation began in 2006. The on-going cost is significantly lower with
volume production.

If this is not the information you are looking for, please do not hesitate
to contact me.

Please see the information sheet below for details of your right to appeal
as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to
re-use any of the information we have disclosed.

Yours sincerely

Anne Sunyer

Head of Customer Services
