TfL Ref: FOI-0030-2223
Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 5th April 2022 asking for information about Northern Line noise complaints.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy.
Specifically you asked:
“According to the Mayor's answer to Mayor's Question 2022/0919, there have been 91 complaints of noise from the Northern line in 2021.
I wish to have a map of the locations to which those 91 complaints relate.”
TfL does not hold the exact information requested. The FOI Act relates to recorded information only and there is no requirement to generate new information to respond to a request. TfL does not hold “a map” of the locations of these complaints. However, that said, the attached spreadsheet provides the postcodes of where the complaints were received from and an indication of where on the line the complaint was about. Note that TfL has 92 complaints logged rather than the 91 cited above.
If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for any reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.
Yours sincerely,
David Wells FOI Case Officer FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
