TfL Ref 0516-2021

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 30 June 2020 asking for information about daily traffic numbers on Marylebone Road, London from 2007 to January 2020.

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

The Automatic Traffic counter (ATC) was installed at that location in April 2013, therefore we do not hold the data for the period prior to this.

Please find attached a workbook showing daily vehicle flows by direction for ATC 277 (Marylebone Road) for the period April 2013 to January 2020.  The data has been extracted via our ATC Patched database, meaning that anytime the site was down due to technical issues / damage and no data was recorded we have patched the blanks with a estimate based of substitute values, days where patching has taken place will be identified in column F, this is done so as to make trend analysis possible.

Please note the Government has announced a series of measures to tackle the Coronavirus. It is essential for London, and in particular for all critical workers, that we continue to provide a safe transport network that enables them to make the journeys they need to.

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 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
