| Black History Month | Black transport workers have been keeping London moving for over a century. In 1910, Joe Clough was London’s first Black bus driver. After the Second World War, over 4,000 Windrush generation employees joined London Transport to meet post-war labour shortages. Today, over 30% of Transport for London’s workforce identify as being Black or from an ethnic minority.
