For those with limited mobility, particularly wheelchair and scooter users this a most useful site.

It details the provisions by each TOC, tram and bus company.

Which companies provide free access, through those requiring pre-obtained permits to those who would rather not be bothered.

It is interesting to note that neither London Buses nor London Underground (LUL) have developed a booking system, having presumably found technology (buses) and well trained staff (LUL) a more reliable route to accessibility.
Well, there's a shocker (not.)
