TfL Ref: FOI-1304-2324

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 22nd July 2023 asking for information about bus passenger numbers.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy. 

Specifically you asked:

I would like to request passenger numbers on bus routes 422, 486, 132, 96 and 89 for every month between January 2017 and June 2022 inclusive.”

I can confirm that we hold the information you require, which is provided in the attached spreadsheet. Please note:
 
  • the number of boarders shows passengers who travelled by Oyster or Contactless Payment Card only;
 
  • there is no data for April, May and June 2020 (during the pandemic) due to our middle door boarding policy, and where any data captured in this period would likely be inaccurate.

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,

David Wells
FOI Case Officer
FOI Case Management Team
General Counsel
Transport for London
