Rail replacement bus for Chingford to Hackney Downs
Request ID: FOI-1401-2425 Date published: 28 August 2024
You asked
I would like to know the number of journeys completed by rail replacement buses during the first week of the current replacement service for the overground line from Chingford to Hackney Downs. This should not be the scheduled journeys but verified journeys by gps or equivalent monitoring, with the time and date stamp if possible.

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 31 July 2024 asking for information about rail replacement bus services.
Please see the attached operator documents used to log/record rail replacement bus services put into service for the Chingford – Hackney Downs line.
Please note that in accordance with TfL’s obligations under Data Protection legislation some personal data has been removed, as required by section 40(2) of the FOI Act. This is because disclosure of this personal data would be a breach of the legislation, specifically the first principle which requires all processing of personal data to be fair and lawful. It would not be fair to disclose this personal information when the individuals have no expectation it would be disclosed and TfL has not satisfied one of the conditions which would make the processing ‘fair’.
