TfL MCP. Get live status for every tube line and bus stop.

This server gives your agent real-time data across every mode of transport in London, from the Underground to bikes and major roads. You use it to plan trips, check line health, predict bus arrivals, or map traffic jams.

Trip Planning & Location Services

To start a journey, you call get_journey. It calculates an optimal route between any two addresses you give it, providing the estimated travel time, how much money it'll cost, and exactly how many transfers you gotta make. If you just need to find a stop or station name first, you run search_stop.

That tool finds matching transit stops, giving you their unique IDs, exact locations, and all the routes that pass through them.

Once you have an ID, you use get_stop_details to pull up metadata for specific bus stops or stations. This gives context about the location itself, not just its coordinates.

Underground & Rail Status

When you gotta check if a line's running smooth, you hit get_line_status. You give it specific Tube lines, and it checks their current service status—Good Service, Minor Delay, Severe Delay, or Suspended. For deeper details on any particular TfL rail line (tube or tram), you use get_line_detail to pull its full operational profile.

If you need to know every single station that runs along a given line, get_line_routes returns the complete, ordered list of all stations served by that specific tube or rail line.

Surface Transit (Buses)

When you're waiting for a bus, you use search_stop to get the correct ID for your location. Then, running get_arrivals uses that stop ID to give live predictions on when the next few buses will arrive. You don’t have to guess; it tells you exactly what’s coming and when.

Road Traffic & Disruptions

To check how bad the traffic is right now, you call get_road_status. It gives current congestion levels for London's main roads—Good, Minor, or Severe. If there's a major incident blocking travel, you use get_road_disruptions. This tool reports every current major road disruption, including how bad it is and when they expect to clear the area.

Cycling Infrastructure

For bike commuters, this server tracks dock availability. You run get_bike_points to search for cycle docks nearby. It immediately tells you the count of available bikes and how many empty docks are standing by at that location. If you need deep info on a single docking station, use get_bike_point_detail. That tool pulls all the specific details about one bike dock ID you provide.
