We answered

Dear

TfL Ref: FOI-0783-1819

Thank you for your revised request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 21 June 2018.

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 do hold the information you require. You asked for:

If I reduce the numbers of buses, would this become available? i.e. if I requires the following buses:

c1,c2,c3,c10,

1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,

10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,

21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,

30,31,35,36,38,

40,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,

52,53,55,56,59,

63,68,

70,73,74,76,77,78,

87,88,

91,94,98,

100.

I would like to find out the average demand for each Bus, on a weekly hour-by-hour basis.

And I don't need very accurate data,  i.e. you do not have to scale up to include data of passengers who do not use Oyster cards. The numbers of only Oyster users works for me.

Please find the attached data for your perusal. Please note this includes no scaling for non-Oyster and contactless payment methods.

The first attachment is a week’s worth of data split into hourly demand for the week from 30 April – 6 May 2018.

The second attachment includes the rest of the routes from your original request. We were able to find a way to obtain the data in a quicker way.

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for some 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
