You asked
Dear Sir/Madam,
I apologise for requesting information at this time but I have no other sources for the traffic data I need.
I am currently analysing air pollution fluctuations due to COVID-19 in London but my analysis will require traffic data.
If it is at all possible, please could you provide me with daily (or even weekly) traffic numbers for London over the past 3 years. If this data is area specific, I am looking into the area surrounding Marylebone Road in London but would prefer data covering London overall.
I would be grateful for any information you could give me.
Kind regards,
We answered
