About the Awards

The London Transport Awards 2014 will be held at the Park Plaza Riverbank London on 6th March 2014.

The London Transport Awards are about recognising excellence in transport, rewarding innovation and progress for transport initiatives which are really working.

"All of us who work in London’s transport industry can be tremendously proud of what we achieved in 2012, the year of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. This summer, our DLR, rail and Tube networks carried the most passengers in their histories, huge temporary changes were made to the way many of our roads operated, and 35 per cent of people changed the way they travelled. Working together, London’s transport workers ensured that athletes, officials and spectators got to their events on time, and that the rest of London kept moving. It was an extraordinary collaborative effort involving a genuine partnership of all the transport operators, the London boroughs, LOCOG, the ODA and the freight industry. One of the many legacy benefits of the Games is surely to see how we can keep these partnerships going for the benefit of the travelling public in London.

Incredibly, we achieved this in the same year that, at Transport for London alone, we increased capacity on both the DLR and the Jubilee line, completed the London Overground orbital railway, expanded Barclays Cycle Hire and introduced the Emirates Airline to our skies and the New Bus for London to our streets.

In 2013 London’s commuters will experience further improvements to their transport networks, with the roll-out of new air-conditioned trains across the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines, continuing work on the Northern line signalling upgrade, more Barclays Cycle Superhighway routes, hundreds of new hybrid, hydrogen and new bus for London buses on our roads and the continuing progress of Crossrail.

I am delighted to support these awards, which celebrate the many achievements of the organisations – and individuals - that keep our city moving and growing, as we look forward to another great year for London and its transport network.

Sir Peter Hendy CBE 
London Transport Commisioner

"Transport is critical to the quality of life and financial success of London, and the dedication and hard work of those working to deliver this vision remains more important than ever. I am really proud to be able to hold these Awards to ensure both individuals and organisations get the recognition they deserve - especially so in the current climate, in which transport can play a key role in helping the economy emerge from the current recession.

I would like to wish everyone shortlisted the very best of luck for this year 's Awards."

Prof David Begg,
Chair of the Judging Panel and Publisher of Transport Times
