Our Ref: FOI-0156-2122 Thank you for your refined request received on 20 April 2021 asking for information about parking statistics for Cockfosters and Arnos Grove Stations. Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. I can confirm we hold some of the information you require. Please see the attached spreadsheet. The data represents the number of vehicles that entered the car parks at both Arnos Grove and Cockfosters Tube stations during each hour stated for every day in 2019. The data is a record of the number of vehicles that entered the car park, it does not indicate the occupancy rates in the hour as some of these vehicles may have been entering the car park for only a short period, while it doesn’t account for vehicles already parked. The data will also include LUL staff that drive to each location, LUL operational / maintenance vehicles, and vehicles that used the Blue Badge parking spaces. The report shows how many Blue Badge sessions were recorded during the hours analysed at each site throughout 2019. This accounts for why there were more sessions recorded than parking spaces available, as vehicles could have vacated a space during the hour and another taken its spot. If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for some reason, please feel free to contact me. If you are considering submitting a further FOI request please think carefully about whether the request is essential at this current time, as answering FOI requests will require the use of limited resources and the attention of staff who could be supporting other essential activity. Where requests are made, please note that our response time may be impacted by the current situation. Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal. Yours sincerely Gemma Jacob Senior FOI Case Officer FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London [email protected]
