TfL Go: Plan, Pay, Travel

Official London travel planning

TfL Go: Plan, Pay, Travel is Transport for London’s official app for navigating the capital’s public transport network. It suits regular commuters, occasional visitors and anyone who needs current information before setting out. The app covers Tube, London Overground, Elizabeth line, DLR, Tram, buses and other connected travel options, with walking and cycling included when planning a journey.

Routes, disruptions and station details

The map is built around live TfL information, so users can check service conditions and disruptions while choosing a route. It can combine different transport modes into one itinerary rather than treating each part of a journey separately. Station information adds practical context, including accessibility details and facilities, while service updates help users spot problems before reaching the network.

• Step-free planning: find routes and stations that better match accessibility requirements.
• Network-wide coverage: plan journeys across TfL’s major rail, Underground, bus and tram services.
• Travel management: top up Oyster, buy Travelcards and view contactless journey history.
• Live map view: see network conditions and disruptions alongside route information.

Who should use it?

TfL Go is most useful when the journey depends on current operating information rather than a fixed timetable. It is also a strong fit for people who need step-free options or more detail about individual stations. Visitors may appreciate the map-led layout, while London residents can use it for everyday route checks and travel-payment tasks in one place.
