Hi, I've seen a similar FOI request under request ID FOI-0241-1920, so I hope there is some similar information available to me. I'm looking for entry and exit data for Farringdon station for the most recent 24 months that you hold data. Also if you could confirm whether this data includes the National Rail entrance and exit barriers or just the London Underground entry and exit barriers. Kind regards
