Request ID: FOI-1546-2223 Date published: 20 October 2022
You asked
The link below opens licensing information and statistics for the taxi fleet, including how many total taxis there are in London and how many ZEC taxis have been licensed in London. However, the site only contains the numbers covering the week ending on the 25th September 2022. I am interested in the same information (total number of taxi vehicle licenses and number of ZEC taxi licenses issued) but from the years 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. Monthly data would be preferred but year-on-year numbers beginning in 2018 (when new licenses would no longer be issued to diesel taxis) would also suffice.
