Provides real-time London transport data including tube line status, detailed disruption information, and comprehensive journey planning between any London locations or UK postcodes with intelligent location disambiguation and multi-modal route options.

  1. Open the TfL API Portal
    Go to https://api.tfl.gov.uk/ in your web browser.

  2. Sign Up or Log In
    If you don't already have an account, click "Register" or "Get an account". If you do, log in with your credentials.

  3. Navigate to 'My Account' or 'My Apps'
    After logging in, find the "My Account" or "My Apps" section on the portal.

  4. Register a New Application
    Click the option to register a new app or project. Provide the required information (like app name, description, and use case).

  5. Obtain Your API Key
    After registering your app, the portal will display your personal API key (sometimes called an "app_key" or "API token"). Copy it; you'll need it for the next steps.

  6. Install the MCP Server (if not already done)
    If you haven’t already, install the London Transport MCP server:

    npm install -g london-transport-mcp

  7. Add Your API Key in the FastMCP Connection Interface
    When using the “Install Now” button to add this integration, you will be prompted to fill in values in the FastMCP connection interface.

    • Paste your TfL API key into the field labeled TFL_API_KEY.

  8. Save and Connect
    Confirm and save your configuration. The MCP server will start using your TfL API key for real-time data queries.

You’re ready! The MCP server can now access live London transport data using your secure API key.
