You asked

I have looked at the information published on your website at http://crowding.data.tfl.gov.uk/ . I’m afraid I have been unable to find there the information I am looking for, namely separate Board/Entry and Alight/Exit totals for the whole of the following financial years: 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2019 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2021 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2022 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2023 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2024 (if available yet) I am looking for these so that I can compare them with the Entry and Exit figures I have for Lewisham National Rail station for the same periods, published by the Office of Rail and Road, all of which were much influenced by covid.

Our Ref:         FOI-0332-2425

Thank you for your further request received on 29 April 2024 asking for information for footfall data for the DLR.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy. I can confirm that we do hold the information you require.

This information you require is published on our website:

https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/publications-and-reports/coronavirus-publications#on-this-page-1

The network demand reports provide information from 1 January 2019 to date. This can be filtered by bus and Tube (including DLR) travel as well as by entry and exit data for each station. This will hopefully provide you with all of the information you require.

Under section 21 of the FOI Act, we are not obliged to provide you with information which is reasonably accessible by other means.

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.

Yours sincerely
