#23off topic: this is the FIRST site I've seen that used Samsung mobile image to show the responsiveness of the page instead of an iPhone or an iPad
edit: the favicon is not right, when the page is not in focus, you'll see pieces of the white-background left (i have OCD)

Another minor quibble - print the rules for passwords before people submit an invalid one. And if you do force a resubmit, persist all the form settings or you're going to annoy me^Wpeople.

#251. "Welcome to our new site" wastes space. 2. The logo and menu bar wastes space. 3. "Tube, DLR and London Overground" wastes space.
Then I click on "Special service" for London Overground (the black text on dark orange is hard to read btw) and ... I get an entirely wasted page that tells me nothing about the Overground because the crap at the top has pushed the actual information I'm after under the fold.
Also, the "add any further feedback" text box has issues under Mobile Safari once you try and go back to edit text - I can't add any more text once I've deleted anything. If I close and open the feedback pane, I can type again. It's a bit confusing!
Minor quibbles really but I'd say it was only half responsive, not fully there.

#26On the old site, I could find the last tube out from Location to Middle Stop, but then get to Middle Stop and realise that the line from Middle Stop to Home is now shut. Hope they fix that now.

Minor quibble - the "here" of "Request one here" is black text on a dark blue background and therefore invisible to me. Another minor quibble - print the rules for passwords before people submit an invalid one. And if you do force a resubmit, persist all the form settings or you're going to annoy me^Wpeople.

Is there an API for Oyster balances yet? (or planned?) I ask as someone slightly concerned by popular apps which seem to rely on you giving some third party your TFL login for them to scrape it for you... Very happy to see that TFL have done as much as they have though. Lovely to see :)
Re: Transport for London – New responsive website
#30They had it on a subdomain for ages. Glad it's finally the main site. It's actually beautiful. Now if only they'd redesign the Oyster bit too.
