Request ID: FOI-0817-2223 Date published: 02 August 2022
You asked
Would you be able to send me the number of users at Abbey Wood station by month over the past 24 months?
If you could also send users at each Elizabeth line station over the first month that would also be great. If not by month as too soon since opening, by day would be fine for those other stations.

Many Elizabeth Line stations share their gate lines with other services also running through the station – particularly in the central section with the most demand. The table below provides entry & exits at all stations that the Elizabeth Line serves. It’s important to note that not all of these taps would end up contributing to a journey on the Elizabeth Line.
