You asked
Follow-up to FOI-1319-2324: Many thanks for providing this data, it is greatly appreciated. Do you also hold train station footfall data, or would that sit with the train operators themselves? Clarification received 10/08/2023: I require data for Hampton Court station for July 4th – 9th, and again also a month prior to these dates for comparison.

We answered

TfL Ref: FOI-1510-2324

Thank you for your further request of 9th August 2023 asking for train station footfall data.

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 require data for Hampton Court station for July 4th – 9th, and again also a month prior to these dates for comparison.”

I am afraid that TfL does not hold the requested information. This is not a station at which TfL services call. Rather, the station is part of the National Rail network and is managed and served by South Western Railway.

Note that the Office of Rail and Road (ORR) publishes some data on National Rail station footfall on its website here:

Fore more information, FOI requests to the ORR can me made here: https://www.orr.gov.uk/freedom-information

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

Yours sincerely,
