I am compiling information relating to the amount of traffic that enters the charging zone each day from the suburbs as a % off cars, in relation to all other vehicles, via the M4 motorway in particular. Also are you able to furnish me with other trunk roads feeding into London? and would this be a similar figure to the M4? I would be most obliged if you were able to contribute to my project.

Our ref: FOI-0499-2021

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 26 June 2020 asking for information about the amount of traffic that enters the Congestion Charge zone.

Your request has been considered under the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and our information access policy.

Unfortunately we do not hold the information you require – we do not know or record which road vehicles used to get to the zone.

I am sorry we are unable to assist you on this occasion.

Please note, the Government has announced a series of measures to tackle the coronavirus. It is essential for London, that we continue to provide a safe transport network for essential journeys.

In current circumstances, we are not able to answer FOI requests readily and we ask that you please do not make a request to us at present.

Answering FOI requests will require the use of limited resources and the attention of staff who could be supporting other essential activity. In any event, please note that our response time will be affected by the current situation.

If you are not satisfied with this response please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely
