In plain English

Transport for London is asking suppliers, through a market sounding questionnaire, for ideas on infrastructure and technology that could improve how people cycling behave at signalised junctions and crossings. It wants to put together a group of solution providers to trial their ideas in London and another European city over 18 months as part of a funding application, with the contract period shown as 1 July 2027 to 1 December 2028.

Good fit for: Small firms offering innovative cycling safety, traffic-signal, app-based or traffic-monitoring technology who are happy to join a consortium and trial in two cities.

What the buyer says

This Market Sounding Questionnaire (MSQ) is issued by Transport for London (TfL). London has seen sustained growth in cycling in recent years, supported by significant investment in cycling infrastructure and the Mayor’s ambition for 80% of journeys to be made by walking, wheeling, cycling and public transport by 2041. Today, London has more than 450km of high-quality cycle routes and around 1.5 million cycle journeys are made each day, reflecting cycling’s increasingly important role in delivering the Mayor’s Transport Strategy and supporting healthier, more sustainable travel choices. As cycling continues to grow, it is important that people walking, wheeling, cycling and using public transport can interact safely, comfortably and confidently across the transport network. Cyclist behaviour is not a major contributor to overall road danger, with motor vehicles continuing to pose the greatest risk to people and cyclists; however, concerns relating to compliance with traffic controls and pedestrian priority measures, particularly at signalised junctions and crossings, are regularly raised through stakeholder engagement, customer correspondence and public consultation. These concerns can affect perceptions of safety, accessibility and confidence, particularly among people walking and wheeling and those who may be less confident travelling in environments with high levels of cycling activity. Existing evidence suggests that behaviour at signalised junctions and crossings is influenced by a range of factors, including infrastructure design, signal operation, pedestrian and cycle flows, gradients, safety perceptions, convenience and social norms. However, TfL currently has limited evidence on how these factors interact, how behaviour varies across different locations and ope…
