Transport for London (TfL) is giving eight different transport services a new look as part of its 25th anniversary celebrations, with the same design featuring across TfL services for the first time.
The wrapped designs highlight the many innovative customer improvements to London’s transport network and recognise TfL’s impact on the capital’s growth since 2000.
These include the launch of the world-first contactless Oyster card in 2003, buses becoming fully accessible in 2005 and the launch of the Elizabeth line in 2022. The designs reflect the distinctive style of TfL’s year-long anniversary poster campaign and feature the words ‘Making every journey matter for 25 years’ as a nod to TfL’s ethos and the milestone anniversary.

In a first for TfL, the distinctive new designs will be in place on a number of vehicles across all types of service: the Docklands Light Railway (DLR), Elizabeth line, IFS Cloud Cable Car, London Overground, London Trams and London Underground, as well as on one of London’s more than 2,000 zero-emission buses and a taxi, and the special 25th anniversary roundel will also feature on Santander Cycles. The anniversary roundel is incorporated into the designs, representing the transformation of London’s transport network over the last 25 years, TfL’s role in economic growth and the creation of new jobs and homes, and its work to make the transport system safer, greener and more inclusive and accessible.
The specially designed transport vehicles will stay on the TfL network at least until the end of the year. Throughout 2025 TfL is marking its 25th anniversary with a series of events, competitions and opportunities for the public to get involved, including a ‘then and now’ photography exhibition and poster design competition this autumn at the London Transport Museum for 11-18-year-olds, and a call-out for people to share their favourite memories from the network since 2000.
