Thank you for your request which we received on 10 July 2023.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy.  You asked:

Unfortunately we do not hold the information you have requested.

There are two Abbey Streets in the Greater London Authority area - Abbey Street SE1, between Tower Bridge Road & Jamaica Road, and a small residential Abbey Street in Newham.

According to our reports there was no significant disruption on the TLRN either side of Abbey Street, SE1. Our records show no trace of any incidents on 14 May 2023 that would have caused congestion on, or a closure of, either Abbey Street.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely
